Today I went online and bought my ticket to Portland for August 17th-21st. I am flying out of Long Beach (YES! So much easier than LAX), and my grand total came to $215. I budgeted up to $300, so I am happy with this amount. I also just researched and it looks like JetBlue does not charge a checked bag fee...nice! I will have to double check that as it gets closer, but that's definitely a plus. I'm so excited to go on a trip and to see my friend Shelley! We've already talked about a hike, a trip to the Oregon Coast and the Tilamook Cheese Factory. We want to do a picnic in Washington Square park and of course check out a microbrewery or two. :)
Anyone else have any Portland suggestions?
There's always Powell's :)
ReplyDeleteThe Columbia gorge and its gorgeous waterfalls...
Numerous bike trails...
Ooh, Powell's! That is on my list for sure. :) Thanks for the tips!
ReplyDeleteA drive along the Columbia River is gorgeous. Try Voodoo Doughnut for some crazy doughnuts!
ReplyDeleteThat's really good! I've been meaning to go up to PDX to visit a friend but the prices are way too expensive, so maybe I'll wait until after I move. I'm totally all about the food, Ken's Pizza, Voodoo, St. Cupcake, Arleta's Library Cafe! YUM! Downtown is pretty cool too of course and Powells :)
