Yesterday’s adventures consisted of the Harry Potter-version of a bookstore, Powell’s Books, a trip to Voo Doo Doughnuts where they also sell underwear…, and public transportation.
My experiences on this trip have been a culture shock, a different world from the upper class community I live. I saw a homeless man eating pizza out of a trash can, a man skateboarding while dragging his suitcase and a man in a suit riding a bike. MTV’s “the Real World” is officially mediocre.
Toto, we’re not in Kansas anymore and let me tell you, the grass really is greener on the other side. If you have a bucket list, I highly recommend adding “sit in the window seat on a flight into Portland, Ore.” The mountains and valleys are greener than a St. Patrick’s day parade in downtown Chicago.
We started off the day by getting semi-lost in the outskirts of Portland — in an area where apparently children do not eat. At every restaurant we went to a sign that said “NO MINORS ALLOWED” was posted. My traveling group is highly concerned for the children of Portland.
