OK everyone- are you ready for today's trip?? Well, if you're not- then get ready! It's gonna be a long day as we will walk around Portland, OR then go to the coast in Oregon and back to see some scenic beauty at Multnomah Falls.
We begin our journey with a lovely sunset viewed from our overnight accommadations at Hotel Happy Valley- ah!
Up bright and early for our big walk! Off we go to the Portland Marathon. Don't worry- we're just gonna do the Mayor's Walk portion of it- and we'll take it slow so everyone can enjoy! Portland is PROUD of all it's steel bridges that cross over the Willamette River that flows through downtown Portland.
DANG IT!! I forgot my fanny pack!
There now- we're finished! See?? I told you it wouldn't ake long!
Now that we're done, we can change our clothes and head off to the coast... but look what we find along the way: Isn't this just perfect?
FINALLY! We arrive at the coast. Now- it may be gray and cloudy, but it's still rather romantic isn't it?
5 fanny packs to anyone that can guess what this is!
And look who else we met there! this poor little Sock Monkey was sitting on the beach in TEARS, SOBBING something about Dis something or others not liking him. I felt so bad for the little guy, that we picked him up and took him home.
We'll now leave the coast and head back inland to Multnomah Falls- This place is absloutely breathtaking! A look from the bottom:
And from the top!
That's it for today's trip. Tomorrow- it's a SURPRISE! But here's a clue.... we're heading back towards the East to a place that some of our friends here are very familiar with!
