Oregon at last

I had to drive about an hour on the I-5 and was pleasantly surprised that traffic was light. We made a brief stop in historic Astoria to see barking sea lions and to refuel at $3.17 a gallon, the best price we’ve seen so far. Our Camry is getting great mileage as we’ve made it this far on one tank of gas! We arrived at our destination, Seaside, on the northern Oregon coast at about 7 pm....another long day. We weren’t too impressed with Seaside, a small resort city with a lot of touristy shops. The highly rated Italian restaurant that we chose for dinner had a 1 1/2 hour wait so we settled on Mo’s, “an Oregon landmark for 70 years”. The food was horrible but the oceanfront setting with a view of the sunset was nice.Les mer
