10.9.2015 Beaches and Dunes day

Today I can safely describe as the beaches and dunes day.

Staying for one day in Coos Bay before heading further south today was supposed

to be a more or less car free day. Wishful thinking. The ranger in Oregon Dunes State Park Station

whom I visited yesterday made a couple of suggestions but as they are all a “few” miles apart I had

to drive, but I didn’t regret a single mile. From Florence to Coos Bay this State Park extends for 40 miles

along the Oregon coast. Formed by he ancient forces of wind, water and time, these dunes are like

no others in the world. These are the largest expanse of coastal sand dunes in North America.

I am just attaching two picture and let them speak for themselves because quite honestly I am a lost for

words to describe what I have experienced today.

Tonight will be my last night in Coos Bay as I am continuing tomorrow my travel further south.

Watch this space !
