Stop 4:Cape Perpetua State Park, Oregon

We stopped and saw some seals on the way there. After we set up camp we watched the sun set over the ocean. We camped in a temperate rain forest and it rained! In the morning we hiked to a 500 year old sitka spruce, and some tidal pools. We saw lots of urchins, anemones, and starfish.

    Those tidal pools are really neat compared to the pools on the east coast. You are so lucky to be doing and experiencing all these things. Grammy

    More seals! Is it too cold for you all to go in the water? Even Brendan? the green anemones look like cut kiwis.
