Day 15






We slept in a nice hotel last night. We had yummy french toast for breakfast before taking off for Hood River, about an hour away. We visited my mom's cousin, Cathy and her family. Her husband Jim was there, her daughter Jenny with her new baby Violet, her son Paul, and her mom, my mom's Aunt Thais. They were all very nice to us. They had a big yard where we could run around and play. We had a nice lunch and a yummy dessert. They also gave us advice about how to find the waterfall.
We then went to a Fish Hatchery. We saw many fish. The biggest fish, a sturgeon called Hermon, was huge. They said he was 10 feet long.
Then we went to Multnomah Falls. It is one of the tallest waterfalls in America. Dad, Blake, & I hiked up to the bridge right below the falls.
After our little trip, we went back to our cousins' house for dinner. We had tacos and played in the back yard.
