So what did we do in a week? SO MUCH!
My friends (who I have know since I was 12!) flew over from England for a week, sans kids, and we really did have the best time.
Friday (our busiest day, no kid day!):
Brunch at Proud Mary, record shopping after at Passenger Seat Records (behind Proud Mary), walked over to Cascada Spa where we chilled hard for 3 hours. Great place to get over their jet lag and have a proper catch up!
After, nails at Savannah in NW 21st (love them).
Got ready to head out for the evening and went to see a great art show at Industry One events - they host events every month (worth checking out!) it was so fun and packed.
Walked down to Fancy Baby (new bar in the Pearl), after drinks and snacks got a taxi to the east side and tried to go dancing at GoodFoot - did not bring our ID (they are so strict) so got a massive pizza instead from Babydoll and headed home. Excellent day 1!!
Saturday, Family Day:
Breakfast at Cornell Farm (as so close to us and we need to pick up some plants for our house too, win/win).
Portland Downtown Farmers Market - have not been for ages - so fun. Free Kittens (yes really - did not get one though) and all the amazing baked good and flowers bought.
Walked into town and took the girls shopping at Frances May and Woonwinkel (and YO of course).
Afternoon hike (one hour loop and kid friendly) at Hoyt Arboretum - great way to get into the forest and show off the amazing trees.
Later: Take out at home from Paadee (that crispy chicken SO GOOD) Netflix and chill.
Sunday:
Wine Tasting!
Headed to wine country (1 hour drive) SO many amazing spots out here so do your research. First stop Sokol Blosser. Red Hills Market for lunch then Stoller after - Stoller is very kid friendly (huge tire swing) and lots of space to run around.
