With our powers combined, we are PLATYPUS!!!
So Andy and I are back from our fabulous week in Portland with Barb. It was SO good to see my roomie again (two years is way too long to go without seeing each other...) We did all kinds of fun things including, but of course not limited to:
-exploring New Seasons and eating the awesome curried chicken salad
-visiting the zoo and the rose test gardens
-making it through Andy's birthday without a car accident (Yay!!!)
-driving up and down the coast to see the Pacific for the first time
-hanging out at the India Chat House with the awesome Sikh guy who made the best somosas and chai i've had out of India. I asked him if he had a brother or a cousin who could come cook like that in Indy, but sadly he doesn't:(
-hanging out in Powell's the HUGE bookstore that i'm totally in love with. I made it through about three of the eight or nine rooms before i got stuck in the fiction room and Andy had to drag me out.
-shopping!
-drinking Jamba Juice, which i'm SO craving now. Argh!
-having my mind changed about chihuahuas by Colby
-eating yummy food prepared by Natalie
-playing Wii after Andy bought himself a birthday present and creating Mii's with Barb so that i think of her whenever i play Wii
-and most of all hanging out with two of my very favorite people in the world because as Barb said, we would have fun if we had hung out in her apartment the entire time and not done anything.
Overall, i couldn't have asked for a better vacation. We definitely need to make sure that it's not two years between this trip and the next Barb!!!
