Today we had breakfast downstairs at the Doug Fir. It's super cool in there. It's set up like a mid-century roadside diner, except Pacific Northwest. We went over to the Chinese gardens, which were beautiful. We took the MAX and bus to southeast Portland and ate at a yummy little vegetarian place called the Cup & Saucer. After than we went back up to the MAX and went out to Washington Park hoping to check out the Zoo and the Rose Garden. The zoo had an hour left before they closed so we skipped that and took a bus to the Rose Garden. That's one incredible garden. So we went back to the hotel, did some laundry, went out for dinner, ate incredibly large northwest organic apples. Not much of a day, but it's sunday. We thought about going to see the Hold Steady but we decided against it. The wife is tired and I'm not sure the little lady is up for some Craig Finn cock rock yet.
