PORTLAND OREGON
Proud to be
known as “weird”, Portland has a lot to offer, both “weird” and “not
weird”. Also known as the Rose City,
Portland has an extensive offering of parks and has been called the most
environmentally friendly city in the United States. But parks are not the only jewels in
Portland’s crown. Microbreweries, food
carts, great public transportation and eccentric neighborhoods abound. You will see them all on ShoreTrips’
“History, Parks and Neighborhood of Portland” tour.
Many of us remember when, in 1980, Mount St. Helens erupted, wreaking havoc on air travel and landscapes both near and far. The power, magnitude and lasting effects of this event will become clearer to you once you have visited the area. ShoreTrips’ “Mt. St. Helens National Monument and Ape Cave” tour will help you to appreciate this force of Mother Nature.
As inviting as Portland is, a trip to the nearby Columbia River Gorge Scenic Area is about as worthwhile as they come. Once you will see it, you will find you must get out and experience it first-hand. So do something fun while you’re here and (as the Portlanders say) “Help keep Portland weird”.
