Multnomah Falls

 After our hike around Horsetail Falls, we made a quick 5 minute drive up the road to Multnomah Falls.  This is the whole reason we chose to come to this area.  This iconic waterfall in Oregon.  I can now cross it off my bucket list.  We found parking right away and walked over to the falls past this beautiful stone wall full of so much character.
 Past this railroad crossing and little stream that empties the falls into the river.
 First glimpse is impressive.  Wow!
 We found someone to take our picture.
 From the bridge at the middle of the falls.

This waterfall is right off the side of the road and no hiking is involved.  There is a gift shop, snack shop, pastry kiosk and restaurant.  We were starving, so we had lunch at the restaurant.  We were expecting boring, expensive food, but we had a wonderfully delicious lunch at a pretty reasonable price.  HH had the rueben sandwich (they cure their own meat) and declared it the best he's ever had, I had the fish and chips and it was tasty.
