Destination: East

The guests have returned to their homes (and electricity....yeaaa), the honeymooners are in the air on their way to the Caribbean for 10 days, and the travelers are pointing the MH east. Not exactly sure where but we have some ideas. We don't have any more pictures to share but hope to have them in a day or so. On morning, some of us headed out for breakfast in downtown Portland. Here we are, left to right, Paul, Mason, Marybeth, moi, Jenna, Mike, Andy and Jon. We had a great meal at Mother's Bistro and Bar, highly recommended. We all stayed at the Nines Hotel in the heart of downtown. Very urban contemporary. On Saturday night, we all met for dinner in their Departures restaurant on the top floor. Asian fusion food.......delicious and expensive but fun. They serve 5 thick slices of seared beef and a very very hot rock and you cook your meat on the rock as you like it. Someone mentioned that it also cost $6 a slice. I stuck to the vegetable tempura, the chicken skewers and the garlic rice with an egg, sunny side up on it. And I managed to not take any pictures. I'm hoping someone else captured the atmosphere for me.
It was a wonderful, family weekend. The notorious NW weather was just perfect and everyone was beautiful.
