Congratulations Portland

Portland is wonderful! It has an amazing transit system. We usually rent a car to get around a city, but after studying the transit system a bit online, I realized there was no need for a car in Portland. Having one would be more of a burden than anything else. There's an extensive free zone in the downtown area, for buses, trains, and streetcars. On the day we needed to venture further out we bought a $4.75 pass good for the whole day. Only once did we wait more than two or three minutes for a bus or train. Early on we made fools of ourselves running to catch a train, which we missed. But along came another one before we could catch our breath!
