Here we are at the entrance of The Sea Lion Caves.  Formation of the cavern started around 25 million years ago.  It's the largest sea cave in the America's.  It's only about 8 miles from us.  

 There were over 100 sea lions the day we were here.  It was extremely loud as it seemed that every sea lion had something to say.  The cavern is 12 stories big and stretches the length of a football field.

After a 120ft elevator ride down to the cavern I climbed some stairs to this opening in the Northern part of the cavern.  This is a look Northwards.  Heceta Head lighthouse can be seen in the distance

Cathy is standing by a lifesize sculpture of the Steller Sea Lions we saw in the cave.  If you are in this area come and visit here.  It was better that I thought it was going to be.
