Amazing Astoria

We played around in Astoria all day and found fun things to do!


We went to Fort Stevens and played on the old bunker things and went on a little hike!


Pretty pictures from our hike.










The kids loved to play on this old Army truck


Pretty Oregon/Washington


I just love my husband!


I swore to myself that I was going to stay in the car, but 237 stairs later we were at the top!


They have opened up a film museum in Astoria because of all the awesome movies that were filmed there. It is set in the old county jail. (the one at the beginning of the Goonies movie)


The little kids loved the green screen. The scene behind them kept changing and they would look at this TV to see what they were standing in front of.


They have lots of fun things from the Goonies movie, here is one of the outfits.


Isn't this the cutest mug shot you have ever seen?


Katie and I sat down in front of a green screen and tried to recreate a scene from a movie.


Here is the Jail and all of us.


Then we drove up to the Goonies house, it hardly looks like it did in the movie. Just a block down the street from the Goonies house is the Elementary school from Kindergarten Cop. The paintings are all still there! It was fun to drive around and see all these things from movies that we love. We guessed what movies 10 different quotes came from so they county jail person gave us all pirates gold!




We went to the hotel and went swimming. Then we all ate some yummy Crab!!


I already miss Oregon so much. I want to go back!

I think I've seen the Goonies, but I'm not sure. That's cool. Oregon sounds so fun!

We loved Astoria too. Hayden is begging to go back. He loved the boat museum and being the captain of a tug boat. Scott loved it because Kindergarten Cop was filmed there.
