Anniversary Trip 2013: Tillicum Beach, Cape Perpetua and Olivia Beach Camp Cabins

We went to the coast again for our 11th anniversary, which was the start of my maternity leave. We spent the first night at our favorite campground, Tillicum Beach. Sadly, we lost the gamble of trying to get a better campsite with an ocean view, and ended up finding a nice spot by the creek at Cape Perpetua for the next two nights.

Then we stayed at our new cabin at Olivia Beach Camp Cabins for the next two nights. Honestly, we both agreed that coming "home" the cabins, still amazed that they are in fact ours, was the best feeling of the whole trip...taking showers, making a nice meal, and just relaxing.

Gorgeous view from the hike (Makenna and I drove to the top...being 38 wks pregnant!)
We Cronin's love the swimming in the ocean...even when it's freezing!
Yes, Makenna is in her pajamas, one of the beauties of staying at the cabins!

Very proud castle builders!
