Multnomah Falls was - as usual - a breathtaking sight (second highest year-round water fall in the nation!) and very, very wet.

Monday the 23rd had less pleasant weather, so we passed the time mostly indoors playing board games (Forbidden Island, Bohnanza, Ticket to Ride) and then heading out for our by now well established pre-Christmas dinner tradition at VQ:

Good times...
