Portland, so far
(I typed this up a week ago after spending the first day in Portland. The second day was also pretty awesome.)
- green, so green; like, all the different shades of green
- pedestrian-friendly! are sidewalks wider here?
- Voodoo’s apple fritter »> maple bacon bar
- people stare, or at least seem not to actively avoid eye contact
- finally learned what IPA stands for; enjoyed a double IPA
- everything at the Farm Cafe was pretty much perfectly cooked (also, cute waiter)
- more sparsely populated than expected, more non-pretty buildings than expected
- I wish I lived here just so I can go to the Saturday farmers market every week
- patient drivers! no honking heard
