When we woke up this morning, I tried desperately to turn the light. When all attempts failed z0g I open the curtains and was quite surprised because I got to see. Last night there were white and about 9 ° C today was everything and it was still snowing - and we do not have ice scrapers. Power, there was not actually in the hotel. Accordingly, we have received only a meager breakfast. Someone is on the snowfall probably crashed into a power pole and has caused the power failure.
8.45 clock we went back on the interstate. We went on the historic Oregon Trail, in the past attracted the first settlers in the West. At 0 ° C and snow We were very glad to not have to drive over these hills with a covered wagon. Otherwise we would be in a week, have not arrived in Portland. After we crossed the border into Oregon, we had changed again in the Pacific time zone. We drove through the center of the half between the North Pole and the Equator marks. The snow had now turned into rain and when we were over the mountains, the weather better.
We soon found ourselves but in a "Dust Storm" again. However, we had been lucky, because in the neighboring state of Washington had the entire highway will be blocked. Thus we saw the first part of the Columbia River Gorge is not very much. In Marysville, we visited the Stonehenge replica, built as a memorial is. After some beautiful Lookout desedimentation the "Old Route 30," we made a stop at the Multnomah Falls, a waterfall, which falls on 2 levels 200m down.
came against 17 clock we had in Portland and 20 ° C in the evening sun. The largest city in Oregon, despite its population rather than prejudice Ulich. High-rise buildings may not be built, this can be found old small houses next to futuristic higher houses, there are many 
parks and small streets, next to even charging stations for electric cars. We walked first at Waterfront Park along, before we pass the City Hall came to the Portland Building. Here is also the 2nd largest copper figure of the United States, the Statue of Liberty. The Old Church of 1882 was also very clear.
