Three on Thursday, Week 11: Portland Weekend

Last weekend I was feeling like I needed a vacation. So we left it up to Priceline. We said if we could snag a good deal, we'd go. If not, we'd tool around at home for the weekend. Thanks to Priceline we ended up with the Porland Marriott for $57! Awesome.

We also splurged on fine dining. (We LOVE the Portland food wagons!)

And just walking around in the Pearl District (heading to REI, of course!)

And no Portland trip would be complete without a trip to Powell's.

Or VooDoo Donuts.

So many yummy choices...

These were our selections.

A big box of sticky, gooey donuts on pristine, white bedsheets - what could be wrong with that?

This picture makes me smile. As Soren was falling asleep he kept mumbling "mom, I really like this round pillow." Apparently he wasn't kidding.

We were lazy and enjoyed breakfast in bed and some morning movies.

Before heading out for an official Portland Walking Tour.

In the rainy, rainy, freezing cold weather.

The rain even got this baby bear in a funk.

It was a fun tour nonetheless. And we learned a lot of new stuff about Portland. Including that this is the world's smallest park:

  1. True Oregonians without umbrellas...Do you use a baggie or some kind of hood for your camera in, the rain?

    We never go to Portland...there is so much to see and do, we need to make a trip too!
