Closed on Monday-land
AKA "Portland"
Now let me just say I LOVED Portland. But, man, everything is seriously closed on Monday in this town. Two of the four restaurants I wanted to go to were closed. The one museum we were going to check out was closed. Even the Velveteria (which I guess is technically a museum too) is only open Thursday through Sunday! The Shangai Tours only happen on the weekends. Regardless, we kept very busy and managed to eat at least every two hours while we were there. =)
Very much enjoyed the donuts, driving around and exploring, and all the water and gardens. The weekend was actually very liquid and floral themed over all - white water rafting in Hood River, wedding ceremony in a lavender field, wine tasting, several brewery instances, many fountains, two rose gardens, walking along the waterfront.

Top of Keller Fountain. This is Josh's most favorite fountain in the world, and it's very cool.

Nothing like some lard after a morning in the zen garden!
