birthday morning .

January 21, 2020

I love the moments when I can observe and enjoy the moments of pure simplicity. Waking up in this Bed and Breakfast place by the fields and mountains was very much the best present :)

Someone else is preparing a breakfast, going out to take photos and feeling the morning freeze. I came back with red cheeks and big smile on my face :)

Going back to Vancouver we saw some beautiful landscapes!

This valley with clouds/fog travelling was the top moment of our trip :)

Morning blessed with red cheeks, fog and inside happiness :)

Waves are our memories .

I will tell you a secret.

Under dark blue sky.

You will only see one star.

The same that leads you in the dark.

As free as the ocean .

We were waking up because sun was out! I knew that our campsite was very close to the water and a lighthouse but when we arrived was pitch black and we could only hear waves going back and forth. While setting up our ‘bed’ racoons came in to say ‘hi’ and did some sniffing around :)

Oh well - Cape Disappointment Park did quite the opposite! This place is so beautiful and reminded me a lot of LT :) We saw deers both nights, already mentioned racoons and it was pretty empty!

We really wanted to try to sleep in our car and November is perfect month for that plus my birthday :)

Empty beach. The one you dream to have just to yourself! Just waves, Youn playing with drone and some seagulls. That’s it! When we went to see lighthouse the next day there was an info board and I read that this place didn’t exist before! It was all under water.

This fall light is so pretty we both could not stop taking photos :)

A little town next to campsite was very cute and had it’s own typical small town life vibe :) We went to a coffee shop and order some breakfast and some local ladies sat to us. We started to chit chat and it was really funny to hear their life stories and how they end up in this little town.

After breakfast our goal was to drive to Bayocean Peninsula Park which is in Oregon. We wanted to ride our bikes there and on the way back stop and visit Cannon Beach :) It was such a beautiful drive there!

Just look at this! Pure sand, sun, waves :)

More to come :)

Salty evenings ☼

Uh, ah,mmm~~ Sunsets in a beach are always the best!!

Our second day in L.A. we started by visiting Lituanica shop with Kara and Erin. They were interested to see what they can try out. The funniest thing was when they bought "Vytautas" mineral water and tried it ;D I couldn't stop laughing :) I explained that this is natural water with no added salt and people use it for hangover.

There was an aquarium shop next to this Lithuanian shop. We all went inside to see little fishes :) My favourite so far was Domino fish. It's all black and has white dots. Looks really cool and I don't know why but I didn't even consider to take a photo of it:/

After that our friends left to airport and we took motorcycle and went to Mulholland Hwy, Malibu. Appearently there are couple Mulholland Hwy in L.A. but we took the one close to Malibu Springs. It was a beautiful road, pretty empty, going in between mountains. We took Mulholland Hwy and then went all the way up to Little Sycamore Canyon Rd. Which is full of hiking trails and then ended up at Yerda Buena Rd. This road connects back to Hwy 1 and next to it there is Neptune's Net Food. It's a very popular spot for bikers and it is also famous because 'Fast and Furious' used this spot for their episode :) I have to say that the end of this road was somehow similar to European Alp roads. With very narrow passes and rocks on the road.

Our final destination was Point Dume cliffs next to Zula beach. I had no idea that this spot is pretty popular for film makers. When we arrived there was a whole film crew filming. Luckily they did this further from cliffs so we were able to get close to it. Interesting fact - this cliff was used in 'Planet of the Apes' movie.

People were climbing up and down this cliff and at least 5 drones were flying around!! Including Youn's too;) Another perfect day and a nice ride back home where dogs were waiting for us :)
