Thanksgiving at Bandon

Well we have always said we wanted to spend a Thanksgiving as a family at the ocean, and we finally did it. Can't say the weather was great but we still managed to have a wonderful holiday and family vacation. Bandon, Oregon is probably one of our favorite family spots to vacation, as I'm sure the ocean in general is most everyones top pick for taking holidays. It is so relaxing and just fun for all ages. The kids did an excellent job of traveling the 9 hour trip. Our plan to have our Thanksgiving meal on the beach however got cancelled do to the crazy amount of rain. That evening we were able to take the kids and enjoy the opening night of the holiday lights at Shore Acres State Park. It is a must for whomever goes that way. A real sight and beauty to see.
We also enjoyed the wonderful downtown of Old Bandon. Lots to do and some of the best homemade chocolates along with a great toy store full of little prank toys. Oh yes, and lets not forget WONDERFUL fish and chips. All in all we had an outstanding family getaway. We can't wait to go back in February with all of Josh's family to celebrate his dad's 60th birthday.
