On Monday we went to the Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport. Saw turtles, octopus, otters, seals, lots of fish and a tunnel of sharks! Went to the Yaquinna Bay lighthouse but it was closed so just looked around at the view. Ate at China Star Buffet for dinner. I was starving. Had good desert there - creme puff, vanilla roll, chocolate cake and YUMMMMY chocolate ice cream. I was so full, my pants were so tight.

Played ping pong at the resort and then went on the bike and treadmill to work off the desert! The resort also has an air-hockey table, a few arcade games, pool table, swimming pool, hot tub and big screen tv. There's free internet here in the lobby.

Our suite is great. The best ever. Great view looking out at the beach and ocean. The bedroom has a sliding glass door onto the balcony overlooking the ocean and beach. The living room has a door to it as well. Cool to fall asleep to the lull of the roaring surf pounding on Gleneden Beach. We have all the amenities of home with a full kitchen, in-suite washer and dryer, bbq on the patio, vacuum cleaner etc. Too bad we don't have a king-sized bed at home. Can stretch out as much as I want when my back is sore.
