Portland

Upon the return from Wisconsin, Marty had a few hours to sleep and he was off to the airport to Portland for a conference. We couldn't be left out of the crazy fun but we did give ourselves a couple of days. We met him out there right as the conference ended. I was not thinking time change when I booked our tickets. I had us landing around 11 which is not really an issue for Madi and Drew but when 11 Portland time is 1a.m. our time added an interesting twist. The kiddos did great though and Daddy was able to meet us at the gate! Our room in Portland was quite possibly the smallest hotel room we have ever been in but we made due. After we spent the morning trying to exhange our rental car due to a problem, we had a lot of fun just walking around the city. Marty loved the food trailer block. They did have some pretty great food there.
 The kids found a fountain area and played for a bit.

 Later we drove to Seaside... the area was beautiful, the water was foot numbing freezing, we had a blast, Madi and Drew got soaked and we had to buy them Seaside promoting apparel, and we shivered while eating our ice cream before heading back in to Portland!
