Cannon Beach, Oregon, USA - 25th June 2008
By: judygreeneyes
Wow, I covered a lot of ground on this trip! I visited Cannon Beach, which is famous for Haystack Rock, which you can see in the picture behind me. It is even bigger than it looks, and lots of birds (seagulls and one bald eagle) nest at the top. At the bottom, at low tide, you can see huge starfish, sea urchins, crabs, and other things that I don't even know the names of. It was cold, cloudy and windy, but it was fun anyway. We stayed in Cannon Beach for one night, and stayed in Astoria another night. Astoria is also in Oregon, but it's right at the mouth of the Columbia River, where it meets the Pacific Ocean. Some of the streets are steep, and there are old Victorian style homes. We stayed at a Bed & Breakfast where my room was decorated with wild animals (a little scary!) and I made some new friends!
