The girls spent Easter night with us and we left for the beach Monday morning. We stopped at the Maritime Museum in Astoria. They were impressed with the realistic displays and so many maritime artifacts. We spent quite a long time looking at everything.
After a brief stop at Marsha's on the way through LB, we unpacked at the beach house and went right to the beach while there was blue sky. Found only one shell but had fun looking.
Laughing at selfies over a firepit dinner, we watched a movie later.
Tuesday was arcade day, Harper scored big on her favorite fishing game.
We had lunch in Long Beach and visited the shops.
Went for a bike ride to the library and around the streets looking at the quaint houses.
Harper wanted to ride to the beach so we tried that until one of them crashed in the soft sand.
Our beach visit Tuesday night was disappointing since tons of these
strange jelly fish, velella velella washed ashore overnight and were quite smelly.
We played Connect Four, Guess Who? and Sorry, then watched a movie and finished the carmel corn we bought in town earlier.
On the way home we stopped at the museum again to tour the Lightship Columbia (it was closed for maintenance Monday). We also visited shops and the art gallery in Astoria and also visited a shop in Clatskanie where Ava-the plant lover found a treasure.
It was a fun trip.
