Saturday – July 7, 1012
On our way out of Newport we stopped at the Hatfield Science Center which is part of Oregon State University. It was so interesting that we could have stayed for a couple of hours but we were anxious to get on our way so we concentrated our time looking at the octopus. Bill wanted to stay and watch them being fed but it would have been several hours later so he just took some pictures. It might have been our imagination but it certainly looked to us like the octopus was sticking his tongue out.
We arrived in Lincoln City around noon. We stayed in the RV parking lot of the Chinook Winds Indian casino. There must be 75 RVs in this lot!
Lincoln City is where my favorite outlet mall is located so I couldn’t wait to go shopping. There are two book stores that I love to peruse and several favorite stores. I’ve saved some money just for this stop. We went to the mall late in the afternoon but didn’t spend much more than an hour or so. Our money ran out fast but it was fun while it lasted. I hope to go again later in the week. We will leave tomorrow morning and will be staying at the Chinook Bend RV Resort. It’s only about a fifteen minute drive from here. We’ve never been there before and we’re looking forward to seeing it.
