Adventures with Meej

I loved visiting my best friend Megan (Meej) in Portland, Oregon!

Megan welcomed me with my favorite flower, hydrangeas (this is why I am petting them). They grow everywhere in Portland :].

Megan's cute house!

Megan and her chickens.

The tub sink I used every day! It was like a little porcelain boat; the fixtures resembled propellers--I was quite fascinated by it.

My accommodations: Megan's cozy room.

Megan playing foos ball with her housemate, Jess. I only played four times, but I did improve my left hand/arm dexterity! Our favorite activity at home (other than eating) was choreographing a dance to Madonna's "Holiday." Megan learned one minute of choreography in just a couple of hours! She is a dancing queen.

Portland has so many farmer's markets with fresh berries and other yummy food (here, Megan samples bread). At this one, I found my kind of cinnamon roll...

...one as big as my face!

Megan invited her friends over for a BBQ.
They are so nice (and funny!).

We went on a beautiful hike along Eagle Creek in the Gorge area (near Mt. Hood, I think).

The high that day was 105 (even I was hot),
so we swam along the trail.

Refreshing chai on the day Portland registered
a record high of 106! After that, we went to watch a movie
in an air conditioned theater, The Laurelhurst, which serves pizza and beer while you watch! Yee-uh!

More refreshment:
Meej smoothies made with blueberries and marionberries...

...delicious (Megan made me at least five).
Can't wait to visit her again!
