To celebrate Heather’s recent birthday, on Friday afternoon Heather and I went downtown Portland and walked around. We visited the cutest puppies1Little buddy! at Pioneer Courthouse and walked around The Bite of Oregon to get to the waterfront.2We also walked by some young gentlemen standing in a doorway, one of whom remarked, “Rockin’ sunglasses!” I took it as a compliment. ;-) We walked by city hall, the parks, and into the Pearl. We found REI and window-shopped their bikes, kayaks, and SUP’s. We walked through Jamison Square, by the post office, Portland Union Station, and back to the waterfront.
We were getting hungry, so we found a food cart and ate a couple of humongous burritos. Oh, my!
Not ready to leave yet, we walked by Pioneer Courthouse square where Flicks on the Bricks was setting up. A little farther west in Director Park, we rested our feet in a cool pool while watching acrobats and dancers.
We walked through Finnigan’s and then, finally, found our car.
What an awesome walk!3Google maps says we walked eight miles. Yeah, I feel it…
