Cannon Beach

---

July 4th 2009

I can certainly say we picked the wrong day to visit Cannon Beach. It was the July 4th long weekend, my sister was in town and my parents were leaving in a week and it was 85F in Portland so we thought what the heck and set out. We dressed like one would when you head to the beach on a sunny day. Who the heck knew that Cannon Beach, a mere 1 and a half hours away would have totally different weather conditions and I had to check the wind directions. It was chilly and windy and very very cold 😞 So much for V’s tent and Frisbee. We did not do justice to the visit.

Next time around, I will check the weather and also plan the visit better so we can actually step into the water. I would have found these helpful if I had read them , . They have a quaint town and some nice shops that warrant a stroll. We were just way too cold to enjoy any of that. I have heard that the Astoria coast is beautiful and we will make a visit next summer. I am posting this travel and some pics mainly with the intent of keeping this blog alive 😱


P.S. This blog is 3 months late, but I guess better late than never.

Yes, it seems like it was too cold to enjoy it! But hats off to Vrushabh...He braved it all with just a t-shirt!

I am sure then it will be too hard to control him at the beach. He may decide to move his residence into the sea :)
