The Portland Gondola

It's hard to believe that last Thursday we had 80 degree weather! We knew that fall weather would come ever so quickly, so we took advantage of the sun and headed off on a little family adventure. Ben had been wanting to take the boys on the gondola (or tram) that goes from the OHSU down to the waterfront. On a clear day you have amazing views of Portland as well as Mt. Hood, Mt. Adams, and Mt. St. Helens.

Apparently this is what happens when you point the flash up
I think it turned out to  be kind of a cool picture!

Seriously, they are so cute!

As we came home, we were asking the boys what we did. Seth's response was, "Not go to a park." They were pretty bummed that the park we ate a picnic dinner at didn't have equipment to play on. Apparently riding the tram wasn't as big of an impact on them as not playing at a park; however, Ben and I had a blast, and it made for some great pictures!
