Leaving Astoria, OR

Yesterday was a day to explore the town. We took the trolley to the maritime museum. We spent a couple hours viewing the numerous exhibits. We then went to another local brew pub for a late light lunch listening to a local jazz band. Back to our B&B we relaxed and read.

We ate diner at the Astoria Coffee House and Bistro. It had a vibe. We had Old Fashions (house recipe) and two seafood entrees. We split orange creme brulee.

On the walk back we saw a car way up on the hill. Below it was a walk street on an even steeper section. We started walking and ended up at the Astoria Column. What a view over looking the two rivers and bridges and the whole city. What a sight!

Another great breakfast at The Rose River Inn. One of the other guests used to own a bike shop so we talked bikes and touring (of course).

We are taking a coffee and pastry break in Cannon Beach. Already have 28 miles behind us.
