Portland Aerial Tram


We have been wanting to take a ride on the Portland Aerial Tram for a long time now.  Whenever we cross the Ross Island Bridge the kids see it and talk about how they want to go on "that".  So, we made a day 0f it by packing a picnic lunch, riding up to OHSU on the Aerial tram, and eating lunch in a tucked away little area at the top of the hill. 




It was an AMAZING view and the kids were just thrilled with the ride.  We could see 3 different Mountains, the Willamette river, and downtown Portland. 

 I think it would be fun to take this form of transportation to work everyday. 
 There were a few really neat drinking fountains up at the hospital that the kids had to get a drink from.  One looked like a bird and one looked like a nest with a small bird sitting on the edge.  There were also some neat fountains and statues tucked away in little nooks here and there. 
It was a fun outing that all enjoyed!  I would highly suggest it and would love to go on this little adventure again some day!
