We parked near the Salmon Street Springs.
Same fountain, different look.
There was some kind of Neptune Festival going on in the Waterfront Park.
The Hawthorne Bridge was in the raised position as I passed under.
The I-5 Bridge seemed to disappear into the tall buildings.
When I returned, going in the other direction, the Hawthorne Bridge was closed after letting this barge pass under.
Portland, the City of Roses.
The Portland Spirit has daily lunch and dinner cruises with magnificent views of the Portland skyline and bridges, but not on a day like today!!
I saw rowers on the river. They didn’t really look like a rowing team so I suspect it was a tourist thing.
There was a Run/Walk Race downtown on Saturday, and a Marathon on Sunday, so it was impossible to navigate the downtown streets this weekend.
The Portland Maritime Museum was an old paddlewheel boat. We would have loved to tour it, but by the time we got there, it had just closed.
The Portland Saturday Market was also open on Sunday, but it was closing time there, too.
The end of my walk was at the Burnside Bridge. How many bridges does Portland have??
I can’t believe it!! It didn’t rain at all for my 90 minute walk along the River!
