The Mini experienced the difference between the northwest California coastline and the rugged Oregon coast. We were fortunate to have more opportunities for viewing Redwood forests as we enjoyed our continued driving trip on hwy 101 north. Stopped for the obligatory cheezy tourist trap and visited for a couple moments with Paul Bunyan and Babe! Our overnight stay is in Coos Bay, OR. Had very good dinners of salmon and halibut at a favorite place of the locals. After eating we drove to a viewing spot to watch the large colony of sea lions gathered on huge boulders surrounding sea caves. The barking sounds were deafening! It was also exciting to see a pair of whales and thousands of sea otters frolicking in the water. We don't see that in Wisconsin!
