Bandon Cranberry Festival

The nice part of staying in little campgrounds like this county park is you get to meet amazing people. Karl and Judy pulled in the day after we did and  invited us to go with them to the Bandon Cranberry Festival. There was a great Star Trek themed parade.

A cranberry harvester. Who knew Oregon had cranberries? I thought they only came from Massachusetts! Now that someone pointed out one of the cranberry bogs, they are all over the place. We learn something new every place we go.
There were lots of old cars.
And Star Trek themed costumes.

After the parade we toured the harbor and downtown shops (including a great candy store and cheese shop both with free samples!) and a local place for lunch…yum.

This exhibit was made by Washed Ashore – Art to Save the Sea.

Sometimes its fun to be a tourist!
