Our first vacation: Newport, Oregon








We had such a good time at the beach. Our campsite was in the trees in a huge campground, where you could walk to the beach- which was pretty cool. And there was practically no one there since it's winter. Although it was pretty cold the whole time, we still had fun, and got to have campfire for 1 night at least ( Saturday it was raining) We walked on the beach each morning and looked for shells. Sunday the sun came out and it was just beautiful! We saw a bald eagle perched in a dead tree on the cliff at the beach and it was so neat to see. I can't believe how BIG it was, seriously as big as a person:) We went to the aquarium and when Cole was awake he liked looking around at all the fish and weird people. We bought some crab and bbq'd it at camp and had a feast in Mike and Audra's trailer. In all it was a successful first trip in the trailer with Cole, and I think we'll be doing it again soon!
