I had originally planned for today’s Travel Tuesday blog to be of my visit to San Francisco, California. It was my favourite stop along the way of the West Coast road trip (30 hours on the road – call us crazy but it was worth it!) and for that reason alone I decided it was best to save it for another day. You can look forward to that one up on the blog in the coming weeks.
Until then, I wanted to share my brief time at Haystack Rock – probably my most anticipated stop on the road. I’ve had a couple opportunities in the past to visit Oregon but for a sad variety of reasons, life & situations got in the way. It made this short visit that much more exciting – to finally get to be here was all that I could’ve asked for!
It was a hazy morning spent in Cannon Beach, Oregon. Having arrived to darkness in the middle of the night just hours prior, I excitedly awoke eager to explore, and swung the door open to be greeted by a thick fog engulfing not only the beach but the entire picturesque town surrounding it. It was to be expected I suppose.. I was, after all, in the heart of the West Coast experiencing the foggy weather that it is known best for. If anything, it only enhanced the beauty of the coast.
I practically ran down to the beach that morning, with only a couple of short hours of exploring time before it was time to be back on the road. Even through the thick fog, I could see the outline of Haystack Rock looming in the distance. It really is a sight to be seen. Who here has been to Oregon?! What was your favourite place to stop and explore there?? Tell me in the comments below!
This is so gorgeous Meg! I definitely need to get to Oregon soon! I’ve never been!
Thanks April! Always in love with the snapshots of your adventures! You definitely need to make a trip there, it’s so beautiful and lots of little towns to explore.
