Ever Seen a Sea Lion?

Monday we traveled down the coast and saw more beautiful scenery. Along Highway 101 we saw this bridge nestled among the pine trees.



We were also intrigued by the wildflowers that flourished all along the highway.







We continued our journey to our destination in Charleston which is a scenic working fishing village. We had fresh oyster sandwiches which were delicious and strolled down the quaint streets that catered to tourists visiting the area.


We left the small town and traveled to a viewing area on Coos Bay where we could view hundreds of sea lions.  You couldn't miss the location because you could hear their barkings from miles away. Even though it was a misty afternoon we still enjoyed watching the antics of the sea lions.
