another portland get-away.

we love Portland so much that we planned another trip. i'm sure it will be the second of many. its just such a fun dirty city. yeah it's pretty gross, but you can't help but love to explore.

we crossed the first thing of my 'portland bucket list' by visiting the humongously cute powells city of books. it is literally a city of books with multiple floors. i was in book heaven and colin knew it. he even found a childhood favorite: captain underpants. i never said it was classy...but i will defend that they were all the rage in elementary school.

if you are ever in portland please try the delicious food trucks. especially The Grilled Cheese Grill.

it is the high and mighty of grilled cheeses. i recommend the egg, cheese, and bacon grilled cheese. to die for.

oh the pie spot. i had been dying to visit ever since i found it on pinterest, and it was everything i had hoped it would be and more. what can i say, it was a day of eating. we got some of their famous 'pie holes' and taste buds had a party. they were divine! 

after all that eating we decided to walk it off at the [free] rose gardens. there were thousands of rose bush gardens and they were all gorgeous! colin called it the allergy garden [for those who have allergies...we don't luckily]
