We`ve been taking it pretty easy these past couple of days. Yesterday we rode into Netarts which is all of 6 miles. There is not much in Netarts except a restaurant and a few motels. We had Tillamook ice cream at the restaurant. Nice ride along the bay. There is a colony of Harbor seals at Netart`s Bay (see picture). Lots of folks at Cape Lookout park. This is an exceptionally nice weekend weatherwise we are told. We have also visited with a few other cyclists, though there are not too many.
Today we rode into Pacific City (about 15 miles) which required us to ride up and over a very large hill at Cape Lookout. We climbed for more than 3 miles. We are going to take the bus back to Tillamook and ride back to the campground from there (about 11 miles). It`s hilly, but not as much.
Pacific City is a nice little beach town--filled with tourists as most of the coast is. There is another haystack rock here. Otherwise it looks alot like all the little towns down the coast. Pacific City is known for being the place where the dorries launch. We weren`t here early enough to see that, but we have seen some of them coming up out of the water.
