My first photos are of me at home in San Diego.  I live in America's Finest City, in a nice home with my family.  I have a mom and dad, 2 brothers, 2 dogs, and my friends Teddy and Justin, who are also toys, but they prefer not to travel.

On this trip, I took my first airplane ride and I visited Mt. St. Helens National Park with my mom and my aunt.  It is really spectacular!  Mom took lots of pictures of me.  It's a very interesting park with excellent and informative visitor centers.  I learned a lot about volcanos!  I also did some hiking and admired the foxgloves in bloom (pretty purple flowers).  I recommend a visit if you are in Washington!  It's not very far to drive from Portland, Oregon.   :p

We spent a night right at the beach in beautiful Newport, Oregon.  The Oregon beaches are so pretty.  Many of them have large chunks of volcanic rock sitting in the water near the shore.  The weather was beautiful, we had breakfast outside at a cafe, where I enjoyed my first cappuccino!  We walked on the beach, where I needed to put on my sunglasses because the sun was so bright!!

I think I look pretty cool...

I visited the Tillamook Creamery in Tillamook, Oregon.  It's the famous creamery where they make cheese, yogurt, and ice cream.  It's awesome!  You can tour the factory, and we ate some different kinds of cheeses.  Yum!  I wanted some ice cream, but Mom said it was too close to dinner time.    :(

Wow, I covered a lot of ground on this trip!  I visited Cannon Beach, which is famous for Haystack Rock, which you can see in the picture behind me.  It is even bigger than it looks, and lots of birds (seagulls and one bald eagle) nest at the top.  At the bottom, at low tide, you can see huge starfish, sea urchins, crabs, and other things that I don't even know the names of.  It was cold, cloudy and windy, but it was fun anyway.  We stayed in Cannon Beach for one night, and stayed in Astoria another night.  Astoria is also in Oregon, but it's right at the mouth of the Columbia River, where it meets the Pacific Ocean.  Some of the streets are steep, and there are old Victorian style homes.  We stayed at a Bed & Breakfast where my room was decorated with wild animals (a little scary!) and I made some new friends!

In Astoria, I made another new friend.  She really liked me!  :cyclops: In the background of the picture, you can see the long bridge that goes across the Columbia River from Oregon to Washington.

I visited Sanibel with my family in August.  It's one of the nicest places to visit.  The island is more than 60% nature preserve.  There are alligators, turtles, crabs, live sea shells, live sand dollars, manatees, dolphins and lots of fish.  We saw so many birds -- herons, cranes, ibises, ospreys, cormorants, and spoonbills.  We ate fresh fish for dinner every night!  I really loved it there!

Hey Mummy !
Today is Estonia 91th b-day,in many houses we saw flags and on one pic you see also me with Estonia flag.
This year it is also same day with "Vastlapäev "(shrow Tuesday ) ,but not always.This day people go sledging,and who makes the longest slide,this person get longest flaxs,old estonians believed it.Nowadays people still go sledging,but maybe they don't believe it to much,cos they don't grow flax.
This day people eat tradional food peasoup,trotters  and with  special cream bun.
It's quite old tradition,even Mari's great-great-grandmother celebrated it,but only beliefs are changed and nowadays it had changed more modern.. like persons go snowboarding.. and do other things..

I had so fun to sledge and we saw there so many people  :P
I had fun !!
