Pacific NW Vacay


Our trip broken down by days...
Day 1: arrived in Portland, walked around downtown Portland (especially loved the Pearl District), let Eli play in the fountain, it was HOT!









Day 2:  Headed to the Oregon coast to cool off, stopped in Astoria to browse the shops, had some clam chowder, walked along Cannon Beach















Day 3:  had breakfast with an old friend, went to the Portland Rose Garden, took Eli to play at the playground






Day4:  laid low, went on the Twilight tour in my bro-in-laws home town, Jeremy's mom (bro-in-law) had a family party so all the Oregon family could meet baby Preston

Day 5:  ventured off to Seattle, walked around Pikes Market, fell in LOVE with all the dahlias, ate lunch, watched the sunset over the Puget Sound and played in the sand







Day 6: visited the Space Needle, saw where Christian Gray lives! (totally drove by on accident), rode the ferry over to Brisbane Island, drove back to Portland







Day 7:  visited Multomanah falls, hiked in the Gorge and hung out at Punchbowl falls, watched Jeremiah cliff jump from lower Punchbowl falls








Day 8:  visited Voodoo donuts, came home :(




We definitely look forward to going back and had such a wonderful time with my sister, Jeremy and his family.

Northwest 101 was so fun. Can't wait to do it again when the boys are older and there is more camping and hiking! :)
