Day 2: Southern Oregon

We woke up very early this morning and drove out to the Oregon Vortex and House of Mystery in Gold Hill, OR. It's a place where they claim that mass can shrink and expand---people can appear larger or smaller and "magnetic terralines" cause balls to appear to roll uphill. Not sure I'm convinced, but it made for a fun hokey stop. Next, we drove through Redwood National Park (yes, we went back to California on only our second day of road trippin'!). We wanted to see the Oregon coast and to stop at the Game Park Safari- a zoo where they actually let you pet and hold wild animals. Evan got to pet a red fox (and form his very own skulk) and we both got to pet a baby bear. See us holding the beautiful African lynx! Evan had to stop at the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area so that he could roll down the hills. We finally made it up to Portland at around 9 pm where we had a great dinner at a New Mexican restaurant before hanging out with Katie and her friends.
