they had to ship it to portland, oregon, to get repairs before it can return to the arctic and rejoin efforts. well, when this ice breaker arrived at portland over the weekend, it was greeted by a sea of protesters in tiny boats, mostly people in kayaks. the ice breaker was able to get in to port, though and presumably it's got its repairs done now, we guess. it does now need to get back out to the pacific ocean so it can sail to the drilling site in the ocean so shell can do its drilling. to do that, the ice breaker needs to leave the location where it is now and pass underneath this bridge, the st. john's bridge to get access to the ocean. early this morning, when it seemed like shell's ship was ready to leave, this is what happened at the st. john's bridge -- look underneath the bridge. more than dozen people dangling off the bridge, basically forming an ariel blockade. the activists repelled over the side of the bridge this morning and they are hanging there. they say they have enough supplies to last a few days. they say they are not going anywhere. the ship is essential to shell
