Newport Aquarium

We had a great day exploring the aquarium in Newport today. Afterwards we stopped at Artic Circle for some fries and fry sauce and then checked out South Beach State Park. We'd love to go camping here someday and rent one of their yurts.

Newport Oregon Trip

The beach was beautiful today. Very sunny and warm. We walked on the beach for about an hour then came back to our room and watched the sunset. We even saw some whales from our balcony. We are staying at the Hallmark Inn and so far we really like it!

Zell's (1300 Morrison Portland)

We love coming to Zells because they give you homemade scones and jam with your breakfast. Today we went out of our comfort zone and ordered items we wouldnt normally order for breakfast. I got the huevos rancheros and Raj ordered one of the specials-pork tamale scramble with ajvar sauce. They were both delicious! But of course we couldnt leave with out having one of their great cornmeal-buttermilk pancakes too. If you go before 10am you can get a table fairly quickly.

Rick Bayless' Frontara Grill

We were so excited to try this restaurant! And luckily for us it was as good if not better than all the reviews!

After dinner we went over to his other restaurant called xoco, which is like street food in Mexico and got a churro anchor chocolate. I loved the churro!

Museum of science and indusrty

Sadly we only had about 1 hour and a half to view this huge museum...so we only had time to run through the highlights of it.

Sears "Willis" tower

I didn't think I was scared of heights but standing on a see through glass floor 103 stories above the Chicago skyline was almost too much for me!
