The Fun Continues: Day 2

May 31, 2011
May 31, 2011

We woke up to an unusual sight; the sun in Portland! It was really hard pulling ourselves out of bed (even though it was around 10am before we even attempted to move). We decided that we were going to try to take it easy in the morning of our second day, since we booked an “eating and walking” tour for the afternoon. After a slow start, we made our way to the Flying Elephant, which is probably our favorite quick stop which has the yummiest and freshest foods that you could want, and such a variety! We got green chile enchiladas and mac and cheese (which sounds weird, but was a really great combination of pseudo-lunch food). We wanted to save our appetites for the tour later, so we tried to keep our eating to a minimum.

Portland Adventures: Day 1

Happy 1 year Anniversary Jilly and Jakey! We are currently enjoying the delicious voodoo donuts in our amazing hotel overlooking the most beautiful city I’ve been to…Portland, OR.

We had a really long day Friday as we were in the music studio until 2am and had an 8am flight…although we did finish our last song off of the new album so that is awesome! We should have our album pressed and ready to go in the next two weeks! The airport was pretty effortless excursion, and the flight was even less-so. Nothing of note other than the flight attendant making Jake do a shot of scotch before we land, since he is a veteran of the Marine Corps (semper fi!). Oh and did I mention it was only 10AM…not a bad start to the trip.
