On Tuesday we stopped and looked at different ocean viewpoints. Started at the Depoe Bay Sea Wall, then the Rocky Creek viewpoint. Saw lots of whale blowholes in the distance!!! Went a short distance to Rodea Point off of Otter Crest Loop. This time we were lucky and were able to see 2 whales at times just 10 to 20 feet off the shore. We watched them for about an hour. It was so exciting! Just saw the water shooting up from their blowholes and then the curve of their backs and a few times their tails! One of them came up more frequently and had a smaller tail so was probably younger. Ray had them timed so he knew when to expect them to take a photo. Too bad they didn't come up out of the water more. Since there wasn't a fin and their backs were jagged they were gray whales.

After tearing me away we went to Cape Foulweather, and then Devil's Punchbowl. Saw lots of surfers in the shallow waves of the beautiful long beach.

We ate at Lee's Chinese restaurant again in Lincoln City. Great food. They have really good tofu and veggie soup. The woman there has only been here for 5 months from China as her hubby's family owns the restaurant.

Played ping pong again.
