Holiday Report

We just got back (yesterday) from a trip to Oregon with our friend Kevin who was over from the UK visiting us. We camped for two days on the Oregon coast near Cannon Beach, and also had two nights in Portland. Camping was great. I hadn't done it since cub scouts. It was quite foggy at times, which is normal for the time of year, but it was great being outdoors and making our own camp fires! We've decided we love Portland and want to go back again to visit. Its generally lower rise than Vancouver and has some older, brick buildings, that Vancouver is a a little scarce on. It also has MANY brew pubs and MANY live music venues. We tried out both with great results. We also happened upon an open air showing of Ghostbusters at Pioneer Square, right in the centre of town. The Saturday Market was also a highlight, where I round a great way to display photos (Plywerk).
We will post some photos soon as well. There are quite a few to sort through.
