Maralin -My sister came to Vist Us!

 Maralin came to visit us and see our house & little town on the Oregon coast! 

Oh how she loved the beach.....taking pictures and looking for "Treasures!"

 Mar couldn't believe we were so close to the ocean! 

We spent 3 hours wandering, nosing for "agates" on Agate Beach and looking for driftwood to take back to Bend!

 She wanted to take this piece home with her too...but it was larger then her CAR!  Ha!

No Way Sis! 

Nice picture Maralin!

 So' Fun to be Together!

It was a relaxing visit and we enjoyed playing some games,  made her "Zuurkol met worst" 

(Sauerkraut with Bratwurst)

a real Dutch meal...for sure!   Popcorn & a hearty breakfast to start the day!  

 Sisters!

 The Three of us went to a small airport outside of Port Orford.  Maralin wanted to see the runway and decide if she could fly to us next time.......


.......and YES! The runway was great - she said! 

Instead of a 5 1/2 hour drive in the car it will most likely be only 1 1/2 hours with her 4 seater plane!

Then we drove to Bandon (see Link!)

Bandon Oregon

See "Live" Coast Webcam 

Maralin found a walking stick in a very cute Gallery!
The ladies were so helpful and friendly!  

Then we enjoyed some "Fish & Chips" and strolled through some shops.....and who did we see.....
Hans Beernink Jr.....with his friend Chris from Bend also visiting on the coast!  My what a surprise to see him there!   So we quickly took a picture to send to Hans & Maria (his parents our friends!) 
      
             "Look Hans & Maria...who we met in Bandon????"
