Some Beautiful Beaches







(Today's blogger: Maria) We woke up Wednesday morning at MacKarritcher State Park just north of the town of Ft. Bragg, where we decided to camp the night before. After breakfast while Mom & Elena were cleaning the trailer Dad , Joshua, Muskini, and I went on a walk along the beach. We walked along the black pebble beach for a while until we got to some rocks. We climbed on the rocks for a little bit and then we walked a bit more. After walking for a bit we found a colony of seals living on the beach. There were some swimming, some sunbathing, and some just waddling around. There were even a couple of baby seals!
After we got back from our walk we packed up to leave. But before we left Fort Bragg we went to the glass beach. This is a beach where a while ago people dumped a bunch of glass and then the sea smoothed over all the glass and made a bunch of beach glass. We parked the car and walked down to the beach. We stayed at the beach for a bit and before we left we all got a handful to take home.
After that we left Fort Bragg for Eureka. We were going to take a detour go on the Avenue of the Giants, a scenic road with a lot of big redwoods, but Joshua wasn't feeling well so we just took the quickest way to Eureka.
