Happy New Years Eve!! Today we went on a river cruise on the Willamette River which runs through downtown Portland. The name of the boat we traveled on is The Portland Spirit.We were seated at a table on a climate controlled deck as the cruise included lunch. It was pretty chilly out today so it was good that the main deck where we were most of the 
time was heated. They provided a highchair for Chance which he did not care much to sit in for long. He would not be held down for this cruise there was too much to see so we spent the cruise taking turns walking around the boat with him and letting him crawl around where there was no one working so he did not get in the way. We went passed little fishing boats and house boats and under bridges and even passed by a submarine. It was a lot of fun. We braved the weather to go out on the upper deck where Scott and I took a few pictures of the scenery you can see those pictures and the rest from the cruise if you click on the 'New Pictures' link to the right and then click into the 'Portland Dec/Jan 02-08 Trip' album. Chance likes people so much he wanted to 
crawl around and say hi to everyone. He did crawl over and make friends with the piano player who liked him very much. He also made friends with our waitress by trying to steal the pens out of her apron while she took our order. He also braved the cold to go up to visit the Wheel House and meet the Captain. We also visited the smallest floating gift shop on the Willamette River where we could not help ourselves and bought the little hat in the last picture. It was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed watching all the interesting things as we motored by them.
