We woke up on Friday and we were ready for our travels to the coast. We were heading to the beach which was about four hours away. We packed up the car and headed out. But first we had to make a stop at the best coffee shop in town.
The drive was pretty funny because we went through all these different landscapes. First we started in the dessert, then Sisters (which is a cute little town) then the forest with super tall trees, then we were in the mountains with snow and then the trees changed and it looked like we were in the rainforest. I was so tired that I kept falling asleep and every time I’d wake up there was a new landscape.
We made it to the coast and couldn’t stop laughing. We were supposed to get there for sunset and we did time it perfectly. But… when you looked out the window all you could see was a wall of fog. You couldn’t even see the water as we drove by. But we were happy to be there.
We got to our Airbnb hotel and found out that we had been upgraded. It was a sweet new room that looked out over the ocean and had a queen size bed! When we saw the other rooms we were so thankful.
We decided to take a walk down to the beach and we found the little stairway that takes you down. It was still pretty gloomy but pretty. We were taking lots of pictures and walking on the beach. We were laughing after standing on a log and saying “at least we are on high ground” right before the biggest wave crashed into us and soaked us! We wished someone had recorded it. Then came back and ate some Thanksgiving leftovers.
I was feeling like we needed to go do something and I asked Rachel if we could go and find one of the cute little towns. She was pretty tired after driving all day so I drove. We started down the road where we thought we remembered the town. After 20 minutes we almost gave up and the joke was that all you need after a long day of driving is another drive. But we found the town and everything was closed at 6pm.. lame. But we were able to see the waves and look at the docks. And then I promised Rachel we would get ice cream as her reward. Came back to the hotel and planned the next day and went to bed.
We had some funny sleeping moment. I can’t remember what it was but we were laughing about it in the morning.
