On our first full day in Reedsport we packed in a ton of stuff! We of course hit the beach right off. On our way there I told Jaelee to stay out of the water because we were going to be heading out of town to do something else. That lasted right up until one of her toes touched the water, we went from don’t get in the water to rolling around in it. Should of known, you can’t keep that girl out of water.

After Jaelee got soaking wet and covered in sand we headed back to the house to get her showered and changed before Grandpa came home so we could head to Bandon to the West Coast Game Park Safari. It is a large petting zoo. It was crazy busy because of Spring Break and LaRee and I had to spend a significant time in line for the 1 bathroom. Once we got in though it was pretty awesome, we’ll besides the poo smell.

Right away the kids got bombarded by all the animals wanting food. They loved it, running around and feeding the animals. I also got video of that but I’m having a problem loading videos right now, dang it! We got to pet a Lynx, baby bear, ferret & a fox. We saw all kinds of animals and heard a lion roar. All pretty cool if you ask me. When they announced a viewing and petting for the bear I took off for it, didn’t even noticed where anyone else was. I have an obsession with real bears so I was not going to miss my change to pet a baby one. It was so cute, oh my gosh loved it. It was not as soft as I thought it would be, kinda coarse. I didn’t get pictures of that either because I videoed it, which I can’t upload.

After the wildlife park we went to the cheese factory in Bandon called Face Rock Creamery. We got to sample some really good cheese. The kids and I bought pizza cheese to bring home to Greg. Then we went to a candy shop and sampled some more there and bought some salt water taffy. We hit up souvenir shop where Jayse didn’t want anything and Jaelee wanted everything but ended up getting a sweatshirt. Then we went and had some lunch at a Fish and Chips shop.

It was a pretty great day!
