Alright, back to the trip.

After a few days in Vancouver we head to Portland, Oregon. I must say that Portland has the weirdest weather in the world. It seems like the weather can never make up its mind. It would be sunny for an hour then hailing the next hour and back to sunny again. Portland is also a very laid back city. A little too laid back for my taste but thats cool for those who live in Portland. Anyway, one of the things that we did in portland was go to the Nike Campus in Beaverton.

Nike Campus was pretty crazy. They had a trail that ran around the entire building and it goes through different terrains. But one of the best parts of the campus was this:


I tried to look for Jordan's but couldn't find it. I think he has his own part of a building instead. We also went on the Portland Aerial Tram...







We also went to a Blazers game but unfortunately could not get pictures of it. The Bobcats won that game and I think my friend and I were the only happy people there. And That was pretty much what we did in Portland. On the last day of the trip we went to Seattle. One of the first things we went to was the Pike St. Market.












And finished off with a crab sandwich and a cup of clam chowder for lunch.


Then we headed over to the Space Needle.


After that we went to the airport and said goodbye to the west coast.


That was pretty much my long overdued trip. It was a great time but now its back to reality. Back designing. Back to the good old chicago weather. Till next time kids!
