Lunch in Astoria

Seared Tuna Salad, after quickly devouring one piece of tuna at the Baked Alaska Cafe on an old pier overlooking the vast Columbia River in Astoria, Oregon. We loved the food as well as Jeanne, our friendly, enthusiastic and efficient server.

The Long Beach Peninsula has always been fascinating to me and these five days have been a real treat, especially since our friends Gerry and Nancy came down to join us for a while. Yesterday after they left we took a scenic drive to Ilwaco and Cape Disappointment, then meandered eastward along the Columbia River and crossed the magnificent bridge to Astoria. We had a great lunch there then walked through the historic downtown, window shopping and munching goodies from an old fashioned Danish bakery. And, we have two more cans of smoked oysters to take home.
