Uber-Downtown Portland
I highly recommend taking an Uber to downtown Portland. This takes the ease off or parking or finding parking which can be difficult at time’s. I do this often myself especially when going out. It supports the local’s and their job and keeps me at ease. And if you plan on having a drink let someone else do the driving.
