The Wesley Bell Ringer 2022 Summer Tour Day 5
McKinleyville, CA to Bandon, OR

Day 5
After the concert yesterday we slept in the sanctuary at the church. We bought breakfast at the grocery store in McKinleyville and ate in the parking lot by the largest totem pole in the world. After breakfast we loaded on the bus and headed to Oregon. We stopped at the Lady Bird Johnson Grove and did a short walk through the Redwoods. It was misty and very beautiful. We ate lunch on the road (fast food and a grocery store) and then we stopped at the Natural Bridges Viewpoint, which gave us an amazing view of the ocean and natural rock formations. A group of ringers did a fast hike down to the bridges because we had to get on our way to prepare for a concert. We then arrived in Bandon, Oregon and played a concert at Bandon First Presbyterian, a cute white church with a blue roof by the coast. It is a challenging schedule, but we are all well and enjoying the trip!

This morning we woke up in the sanctuary of the church and loaded the bus. We had breakfast (provided by the parents) in the Safeway parking loot, and they also had the "world's largest" totem pole! After breakfast we drove to the redwoods and went on a BEAUTIFUL walk through the trees. They were amazingly mesmerizing as they towered over us. When we got back on the bus, we drove to a gorgeous lookout called natural bridges. Katy gave us 15 minutes to go see the rocks, so we used 5 of them to take pictures. Some of us decided to hike down to the arches over the water but we only had 10 minutes! We sprinted down and had an amazing view but accidenatly forgot that we only had 5 minutes to hike back up! We were just a little late ;) From there we drove to a church in an adorable little town off the coast of Oregon for our concert.
