Our vacation -day 1 and 2

Well I forgot my camera cord so I will have to go back and add pictures.

Yesterday we left and headed towards Portland. We stayed at an awesome little town called Cascade -Locks, OR.. right on the Columbia River. Our balcony in our room sat right by the river and right underneath a bridge called Bridge of the Gods, which led into Stevenson, WA. We went across the bridge and had dinner at a place called the Crab Shack which was also on the river.

We left this morning and headed to Portland... we stopped at the Bonneville fish hatchery and saw a 900 lb sturgeon. As we were walking back to the car Ry fell and smacked his head on the ground, he has quite a goose egg and road rash. After that we went to OMSI... which was alot of fun! We then decided to take the freeway into Vancouver, WA and had to cross the I-5 bridge. There was a "jumper" there and traffic was unreal... the police had it completely stopped going the other direction... so we made it across but had to take a detour and it took us 2 hours to get back to out hotel. We are now in our room watching a movie and getting ready for the zoo tomorrow and heading to Long Beach, WA.
