FWIW, if you have time, I recommend a visit to Oregon Zoo and the Japanese Gardens (this is from someone usually unimpressed with 'gardens'). You should also check out the Saturday Market (which is also open on Sundays!) - usually great food and interesting things around there. If you have time and want stray further afield the multinomah falls are amazing and the hydroelectic damn & fish ladder are interesting. Even further afield is the Oregon coast and somewhere like Astoria (which is where Goonies was filmed).
