Portland Day 2
I got up today at 8:30, chilled in the room till about 10, and then met Chris for breakfast at the hotel resturaunt. I got the buffet, which is everything, but it was really expensive. Glad the university is picking up the tab on this one! After breakfast, we headed over to the oregon museum of science and industry. It was a really long walk, or at least is sure seemed that way.
The museum is geared a more to kids, but that didn’t stop us from playing with all the exhibits anyway. They have the submarine there that was in the movie, Hunt for Red October. I didn’t get a chance to go in, but I looked at the sub from outside, it looked pretty cool just sitting there in the water.
After the museum, we started walking back to the hotel, and decided to stop and eat at a restaurant called “Rock Bottom Restaurant & Brewery.” The food was pretty good, and they had good root beer as well (what? you know I don’t drink.)
In 6 minutes we have the noob orientation, followed by the opening banquet…
