Portland Activities

This week I wanted to display a few of the Portland activities that we did with you. I always love to find new things to do as a family, especially when they are relatively inexpensive or free.

 We didn't do a whole lot of exploring, but we did head out to OMSI twice this week. We do have a yearly membership pass, which makes the outing very cheap! So, we headed out on Tuesday and then were asked to go again on Thursday. Both of these trips were fairly spur of the moment kind of deals, but when the activity is already paid for we might as well utilize the pass :) The kids have so much fun exploring and playing. I love that it is educational and entertaining. After the second day of OMSI, we headed down town to check out a few things at the camera store. We ended up not finding what we set out to, but a block away we did find a fun flower display in Pioneer Square. As you can see, O'rien thought it was fun! He wandered around while I snapped a few shots.

He thought it was fun to zig-zag around in the flowers, and he didn't want to leave them. I sort of think he thought of them as a maze, because they were spread across the square with walking paths in between. It was a nice added bonus to our down town adventure, since it was pretty to look at and free entertainment. So glad we came across it. Hopefully this will remind us all to check out what fun activities are happening in Pioneer Square, because I know there are other free events and displays down there quite often. 

Do you know of any fun ones that we should put on our calendar?
