On day two we went north to Astoria and area. While up there we saw the hull of a shipwrecked ship and then Fort Clatsop. Fort Clatsop is part of the Lewis and Clark trail. They had a remake of the original fort and people there to explain it to us. All I can say is that I'm so glad I live today and not back then. Tiny rooms for many and no indoor plumbing.
Here are the kids sitting around a table in one of the cabins
Ben, Evan and Chris sitting on a bed. Ouch! All wood and no real padding.
They had a "family room" which was where a whole family would live. It was TINY! Reminds of when we lived at my parents house in one of the bedrooms. There were only 4 of us then. Can't imagine all 7 of us in one room and glad I don't have to. Evan and Lexie are sitting on the small children chairs in the family room.
Peter wanted a rest, but like I said earlier it wasn't very comfortable.
Here we are all standing outside the fort.
