Newport



We overnighted in Newport
View from our balcony at Elizabeth Street Inn.

Yaquina Bay Lighthouse -  great views

Lighthouse keepers were great story tellers. It was very windy, and keeper told of tying children up to play outside to prevent their being blown away
view from lighthouse
the common murre, a somewhat penguin like flying bird lives on rocks. Because they are partly white, you can see theem on the big rocks.


Here's where they eat
 
Back at the visitor center, we say peregrines mating
