The Goonies
When I was younger, one of my favorite movies was "The Goonies". I remember being so captivated by the plot, I loved it! After seeing the movie, I really wanted to be a Goonie, who didn't? I still love that movie and all the great memories that surround it. So on Saturday, Jeff and I decided to drive to the coast and go to Astoria, the town where they filmed "The Goonies". We got to Astoria in time for lunch, we stopped at Clemente's for some seafood. I had the Cioppino and Jeff had a Albacore Tuna sandwich, both were delicious. After lunch, we walked down main street and found a little bakery called "Lindstrom's Danish Maid Bakery" to grab a little treat. The bakery was very good and I really wish we would have stocked up on some of the bakery items, because it was so good. Definitely a reason to go back. Next thing on the agenda was to find the Goonies house. We had the address and it was pretty easy to find it. As we were arriving at the house, some people were leaving and others had just gotten there, so we were not the only crazy ones paying homage to the movie.

Loved that movie! We would watch it all the time, but for some reason it really offended my dad. Do they take the Lord's name in vain in that movie? That always offends him.
That looks like so much fun!! I still can't believe that there are people actually living in the "Goonies" house. Love the funny sign as well.
I loved that movie, too! I actually just watched it a few weeks ago. That sign is funny.
Tony and I just watched Goonies, oh the memories. What a fun little trip! I think I even asked Tony where they filmed it and we both had no idea. Now we do! My favorite is chunk when he is telling all of his secrets. Good post!
How cool! That is seriously one of my favorite shows. "Hey you Guys"
"Andy you Goonie"
