Lewis and Clark and the Corps of Discovery used canoes like this one on their journey. We visited a replica of the winter headquarters of the expedition... had a wonderful tour of the Columbia Maritime Museum... cruised out to the Columbia River Bar (entrance). And then after lunch, some chose to walk in downtown Astoria and some walked the beaches of Fort Stevens State Park. We heard the most interesting tidbits of information on Lewis and Clark.
