We're headed down in a couple weeks (please hurry up!!) to spend a week in Seaside for the week of July 4th. Although we've visited Seaside for many years, we've never been down on the 4th. Can ya'll provide some insight about things we need to make sure we see\attend while down that are holiday related? Seems like i read somewhere about a parade that ends in Seaside (?) and fireworks that night. Besides this, what are some other things we should know about? I'm guessing the week of the 4th is more crowded than most other weeks during the summer???
Also, during all our years of coming down, we always find ourselves eating at the same places: Goatfeathers, Spicy Noodle, Red Bar, Great American Cafe, variety of places in Seaside. This year we would like to venture out to a few 'new' places. Any suggestions? We have 2 small children and the family coming with us also has 2 small children, so any place we go needs to be somewhat kid friendly and casual.
(Just found out today that we may be headed back to Seaside at the end of July for a short stay with brother\sister-in-law. One trip a summer to Seaside is a blessing. Two trips to Seaside is like winning the vacation lottery!!!)
