We do love our visits to Portland, Oregon, and who wouldn’t? Style, vitality, flair…
We’ll let photos tell our story:
Lots of murals, lots of art.
Even the koi at the Japanese Garden look artistic.
A one-of-a-kind car.
Flowers are everywhere around the city. We saw a coast hedge nettle in bloom (Stachys Mexicana) on Sauvie Island, an area in Portland.
We cheered the Portland Thorns to victory over the Washington Spirit in an exciting game, and what could have been better for snapping photos than a free front row seat (courtesy of friends).
For a quiet and inspiring space, we walked up to the Japanese Garden in Washington Park, filled with vibrant green moss under and on the trees.
Gothic arches under the St John’s Bridge inspired the name, Cathedral Park.

It’s a tough job picking out the photos, isn’t it? But a fun way to re-live the moment. Love the cathredal shot, especially since I;ve been there, and never before got the connection!
You can rent paddle boats there too or bring your own kayak.
What a wonderful looking city! Always passed by or through – next time, we’ll stop!
Tasty food scene here too.
