Tony being silly.
Last weekend we took a weekend off and headed down to Newport, Oregon to meet a gentlemen that was selling a bunch of donut mix. We left at 4:45am. Everyone thought we were crazy but when you are traveling with a two year old you do things like that. We ended up getting to Newport around 11:00am. We immediately went to the beach. I forgot how nice the beaches are on the coast. The sand is so fluffy and nice. Vann didn't quit know what to think. He doesn't like sand very much. He kept stopping to get sand out of his shoes. When we finished playing around on the beach we went to a fun little restaurant called Flashbacks. It is made to look like a 50s style diner.
When we finished with lunch we headed down to downtown Newport. That was a lot of fun. There were sea lions just hanging out on the dock. We then had to leave to go meet the guy that had the donut mix. Once we finished taking care of business we decided to go to the Oregon Coast Aquarium. Vann couldn't wait, he was yelling. "fish,fish,fish" the entire time we were in line to pay. Vann had so much fun. I love to see him so excited.
After spending the night in Newport we got up and headed toward Seaside. We stopped a lot on the way up. We stopped at the Tillamock farmer's market, air museum, and the cheese factory. We had fun at all of our stops. Vann got some fresh raspberries from the farmer's market. Those are his favorite. He enjoyed looking at all of the old airplanes and siting in some that they had disassembled. At the cheese factory he went crazy considering cheese is one of his favorite foods.
We finally made it to Seaside after getting stuck in traffic. We drove a round for a good 20 min. just to find a parking spot. We then got lucky and found one on our second drive around. We then walked around town and checked out some of the stores. It finally was time that we could go check into our hotel. We went and got settled and then went to asked the locals what they recommend for dinner. We ended up at this little restaurant that had been featured in several magazines. Tony is now hooked one salmon and chips. After dinner we took Vann to another aquarium and that was down by the water. Vann got to feed the seals and I ended up getting wet because they splashed us to tell us they wanted more food.
After walking around town again we went back to the hotel to go swimming. Vann loves the water I think he should have been a fish. We had a lot of fun and I hope to possibly come back someday when we have more time.
