Portland - Part 2

 Grandma Lue and Papa came to see us while we were in Portland and we spent one day taking the train around downtown. Here we are at the Chinese Gardens.

 We each got a fortune. 
Use your best talent to guarantee success in life.

Accept an opportunity that it is offered to you. 
 
 
 
 While walking around downtown, we came across this man painted silver.  The kids refused to believe that he was real, but they loved watching him roll glass balls around on his hands.

We also went to the Children's Museum which was full of activities for the kids.  
They especially loved the water room.



They each got creative with the face paints...
Butterfly
 
Pirate
...built things in the light room...
 
 ...went shopping in the grocery store...


...and tried not to get eaten by the alligator while brushing his teeth.

 Our last stop was at the International Rose Test Garden.  
I was impressed with how beautiful the roses still were.
