Reifel bird sanctuary

What Autumn would be complete without a trip to Reifel bird sanctuary?

It is only 40 minutes from our apartment, and is an epicenter for wildlife. Of particular fame is the thousands of Snow Geese that flock to the area each year.

Here are some photos from our trip:

Birthday celebrations at Cannon Beach

This weekend David reached another milestone...his 32nd birthday.

We suitably marked the occasion with a three day surf trip to Cannon Beach, Oregon, one of our favourite getaways.

We stayed in a gorgeous apartment in Seaside with sea views (would you expect anything else?), and had a very indulgent weekend of food, wine and waves.

Here are some photos from our adventures, including our time at Short Sands, our favourite surf spot in Oswald West State Park:


This is the view from our apartment....pretty stunning:


This is another surf spot we explored:


All in all, an excellent weekend & a place we'll undoubtedly be coming back to visit again soon.
