Cannon Beach Getaway

If I had to name my most favorite place in the world, Cannon Beach, Oregon would probably be it. It is such a peaceful, serene place, yet full of life and art. One can't help visiting here and be inspired to write, photograph, draw or something using a creative talent. It is a place so breathtaking and inspiring- makes it hard to leave.

We spent the past few days at Cannon Beach, having the most perfect summer respite. We flew kites, built sandcastles, danced in the ocean, strolled the art galleries (ok, just I did that - the kids will have to grow into that appreciation), rode dune bikes, collected seashells, watched an amazing sunset, and just enjoyed the goodness of life.

We've made it a tradition for the past three years to make an escape to this place once a year (just 4 hours south of Seattle) and we already wait for the next visit.
