This is an over view of our weekend in Portland!
Friday 7/23: We arrived by mid afternoon and settled in to Dave and Sandy's house. The boys were busy being curious- looking at everything. The boys dug up a bucketful of potatoes! A yummy spaghetti dinner was enjoyed by all.
Saturday 7/24: We went to OMSI (Oregon Museum of Science and Industry) near downtown Portland. We got in for free with my Discovery Science Center membership (sweet). We arrived at 9:30am and didn't leave till 3:30pm. We could have stayed longer- the boys loved it!! We then walked over the Hawthorne Bridge and went over and played in a fountain. Yummy dinner out at Old Wives Tale (a child friendly place). 
Sunday 7/25: Today Dave and I got up and went on a nice, long bike ride all over Portland. The boys stayed home with Aunt Sandy. When we got home we got ready and went to Multnomah Falls. We walked up to the middle of the falls and enjoyed the water spray. We had a picnic afterwards! We came home, I napped and the boys watched a movie. We were all wiped!
Monday 7/26: We had a slow start to our day and headed downtown on the #12 bus. Today as a day of traveling on different modes of transportation. After the bus we hopped on a light rail train, walked to the bike stand and rented a Surrey Bike for 4. We pedaled along the water front and esplanade. The weather has been lovely in Portland this weekend (too warm for locals, but nice for me). We took a train up to Pioneer Square, had lunch and soaked in the local color. We then caught a bus too the hospital and road the ariel tram down to the water. We finally got home by 5pm and went dinner. Jason fell asleep before dinner ever started and stayed asleep till the morning (he was pooped).
Our weekend was busy, fun and so memorable!! We love Portland and can't wait to come back in two weeks for more fun!!
