Portland Vacation - Day 6 : Last day!

Oh so sad that our trip had to come to an end. We made the decision to spend our last day shopping to take advantage of the lack of sales tax they have there.

We spent about 4 hours at the outlet mall and then had our last meal together at Taco Bell. I know, all this delicious, fancy food the whole trip and we muck it up with Taco Bell. Hehe.

After shopping we walked around downtown Portland before going to the airport. We made our second trip to Voodoo Donuts where this time around we got a Capn' Crunch donut, a Fruit Loop donut, a jelly filled donut, and of course one last maple bacon bar.

Here's the line along the sparkly wall outside the building.

Stain glass of their most famous donuts.

They have a really cool chandelier in this shop.

Here are some shots from around town during our walk.

The boys really wanted to see the Rose Garden where they have the b-ball games.

We had a little mini photo shoot outside the Rose Garden before we left for the plane and not see each other possibly for at least another year.

I think John was trying to punch my boob in that last one. Anyhow, that's all for our trip. We got on our plane with no incident and landed back at Long Beach airport safe and sound.

These are truly some of the greatest friends a person could ever have. Jacob is now back in Japan and hopefully this next spring it will work out for us to try to visit him again. We plan on visiting Kelly next year.
