On Monday we all (Grandma, Grandpa, Gus, Luc and myself..no Great Grandparents) went back over the bridge to Astoria. We did the Costco / Fred Myer run
again, and also hit up the new Home Depot down there (big news!). Before we stopped at all the stores, we went on a trolley ride around Astoria (only a $1!). When we went over to see the Tall Ships a month or so ago, Lucas saw the trolley and has been dying to ride it since. So we finally made it back over...and he loved it.
I've never seen him so quiet with anything. He was studying everything going by. The only time he talked was when he saw a big ship or when we stopped to let someone on, he'd ask "we no done?"
I didn't get the camera on in time, but Gus and Luc both had the same look on their face that Luc has in this pic. It was pretty cute.
The trolley went right over the water. The engineers kept talking about how long it was (the track was built in 1889 and the trolley was built in 1913) so it was really comforting to hear when we were 30 feet above water.
I think the next time we're in Astoria (probably tomorrow with how this weather is..) we'll go on the trolley again. Cheap and interesting entertainment that everyone enjoyed :)

Where the heck is Astoria?? :)
Glad you had fun!
Ok, I just figured out how I can add comments back! haha But I'll still email you about it cuz it's been so long.
Astoria's in Oregon. Right on the border of WA and OR...if you don't count the big river inbetween :)
