The Oregon coast

Time for heading south ! Our idea was to take the road along the coast all the way from Olympic to Los Angeles. First the 101, then the 1 in California. In particular, we wanted to see the Oregon coast which is said to be very beautiful. Well, there was indeed some very nice spots along the coast, but we like the California coast better. First, in Oregon the 101 is too often far away from the coast, so that you don't see anything. Also, there was too much fog blocking the view.
