[personal|photos] Hanging at the beach

[info]the_child and I have been spending the weekend at the beach house belonging to my parents and [info]lillypond (a/k/a my sister).

Yesterday after a slow morning, we headed down to Long Beach for lunch at Doogers. Subsequently we went to Scrappacino in search of Anna Lena's fudge. There we found this delectable comestible:

Which I tried a sample of:

It tasted about like what you'd think garlic and fudge mixed together would taste like. Two great tastes that really don't taste great together, in this case.

The store also featured scrapping and fabric arts supplies.

Outside, we wandered by the world's largest pair of chopsticks.

We then faffed about a bit, including me not finding the putt putt golf course in Long Beach, before heading down to the Neptune Theater to see Brave [ imdb ]. Nearby I saw the following sign, which I present without further comment:

Later, after the movie, the sun finally came out, so we hit the beach.

After that, we laid low until everyone fell asleep. This morning, [info]lillypond and I walked across the peninsula to the bay side, during which walk we saw both a coyote and a raccoon. No bears, though.

Home to Portland after lunch.



As usual, more at the Flickr set.
