Day 13 - On the way to Portland Oregon

7/23/09 (Thur)

We stopped by Oregon City Shopping Mall, Tom want to go to Oregon Trail Historical Museum. But Tom could not found the place, we stopped and Tom checked the map again to see where we were. Later Tom found it was next to 17th street, but it was one way street, we had to turn in 15th street to get there.

We only took some pictures outside the building, cause you have to pay $9 for each person and it will take you all day to see them all. Tom did not want to stay all day in the Oregon Trail. So we drove to Portland's Walmart trying to stay for the night, but found we could not stay overnight. On the way there we saw some Chinese market and restaurant, we parked at Walmart parking lot and walked over to the stores. But Lawrence did not want to eat there. We then drove to Troutdale to look for Flying J. Tom took a wrong turn on I205, because Lawrence forgot to tell us to turn ahead of time. We ended up going to Chinatown; we could not found any parking for our trailer. We left Chinatown and drove to Flying J. There we saw there was a TA next to it and had better parking to spend the night. I told Tom I wanted to eat at Popeyes at the TA gas station, but Tom missed the exit. We went inside the Outlets and I buy a paring knife cost $.99 cents and French Fry Slicer for $3.99 (Kitchen Collection). Then we went into Le Gourmet Chef to buy Pump & Pour Fizz cap (for the soda bottle). After that we went to Popeyes to eat dinner, which cost us $16.58. We walk back to our trailer and slept for the night.
