Newport is the closest coast town to Albany, which is where I've been staying. Newport is about an hour and a half away, but the ride is really beautiful. We visited the Oregon Coast Aquarium, had some great "off the boat fresh" seafood, scoped out some lighthouses, a tidal pool/basin, and the coast in general. It was a great day. Enjoy the photos

| Extremely rare!...the sunshine silly...not the plant |

| Needless to say we didn't want to rile the little buggers up too much :) There's nothing worse than an upset, horny, little furry Otter...not a pretty site! lol |
