We stayed with our friend Robby in Portland Oregon. When we got ready we went to Pier Park for some disc golf fun! Luckily the park was very shaded and not too hot. After the park Robby had to work so Ryan and I discovered Hawthorne Street on our own. It is a local area with shops and restaurants. Almost everything was closed because it was Sunday, but it was still fun to walk around.
JULY 27th - My Birthday (high 105)
We got up and walked around to find some place to get lunch. Then we took the bus downtown to the Chinese Garden. It was quite peaceful. Then we shopped a bit at Powell's Books. I could have stayed there much longer, but we left after browsing. Ryan and I then went to Forest Park which is the largest park within city limits in the U.S.
For my Birthday Dinner we went to the Melting Pot because I had never been there before. It was delicious.JULY 28th - HOT HOT HOT (high 108)
It reached record temperatures today! So the combination of no air conditioning and blazing heat was horrible. We tried to stay in shops that had AC but most places in Portland don't.
For dinner I went out with a high school friend, Christine. It was really fun to catch up with each other. Then we went to a coffee house that had AC YAY! It was so nice to drink iced coffee and be cool.
The hardest part of the day was trying to fall asleep in the heat!
