Brief Recap:
The Water Wonderment Wride started at Waterfront Bikes with oodles of Kids and their Parents winding around Downtown Portland visiting some well known and some lesser known fountains.
Waterfront Bikes provided free rentals to anyone who needed them plus everyone who needed Bells for their bikes got one.
At the Lee Kelly Fountain the kids got their 1st taste of water fun then we headed up Broadway and stopped by the Elk Fountain and made a quick stop at the Ira Keller before heading up to the Dreamer Fountain where an impromptu ride around happened then we stopped at Lovejoy fountain where the kids had fun playing and breaking a Pinata.
After that we visited the new Teachers Fountain at Director Park before heading down to Jamison Square where Cool Moon Ice Cream gave 1$ off on a micro or regular scoop, afterward the people who rented bikes headed back to Waterfront Bikes with huge smiles because of the great time that was had by all.
