Depoe Bay

Yesterday (Thursday) turned out to be very windy and rainy. We had planned to head out and tour some more lighthouses, but decided to stay put. Our room looks over one of the popular "whale-watching" coves in Depoe Bay - as you can see from the photos below, we are at the water's edge.

The first 5 photos showing bright sunshine were taken on Wednesday afternoon, after we settled in.  The location of this B&B is perfect for whale watching.  Two whales came into the cove on Thursday morning ... of course, we missed them !!!  :(

The back of our room has 3 large windows facing the ocean, and two more on the sides.

A nice private patio area

The back of the "Sea Rose Suite"

Sunset on Wednesday evening

This is the last ray of sunshine we saw on Thursday morning ... soon after, the fog and rain came in.

Breakfast was served in our room ... no one'g going to starve here/  Pecan encrusted French Toast, sausage links, potatoes with mushrooms and onions ...

Practiced taking long exposures of the water, to get that "smooth" work ... didn't work out so well :)

Lou got outside for few shots as well

The waves grew larger as the day went on ... it was quite enjoyable hanging out in the room, watching and listening to the waves.  We may have to buy one of those "Wave Machines." 

Another one of Lou's buddies.

Friday morning ... the sun is out!  And, we saw some whales !!!!!  (Unfortunately, those are whales we saw in Sydney several years ago ...)  But, the sun really is out.

  

Once breakfast is served, we will be on our way to the Portland Airport.  Then on to Cave Creek where we'll see Mij and Beau.  Thanks for watching the whales with us.
