My family have a flight back to New England later tomorrow night.. We're all looking for something to do for 5-6 hours in Portland before I leave for hood...
Any suggestions?
Right now, my rents are thinkin of the Zoo, On3p Factory, Food Carts, some boat ride?, and basicly roaming around downtown Portland.. PM me if you know anything fun/interesting to do in Portland!

punchbowl is going to be a little much time commitment-wise if you plan to do much else

wander washington park, rent bikes, zoobomb (bike/skate/wahtever in wash park), tour some micro-breweries, people watch (portland has some weird people walking around), tons of hikes, waterfront

all depends which ones you go to man, there are definitely mediocre ones and really dank ones.
plus you literally can get some pretty close to authentic food at most food carts which is always cool.
