Dee, on old online friend is at portland so she kindly sorted out a night out for us. considoring it was a tuesday night we had such an amazing time!
we hit up a few pubs after booking into a sleazy hotel/motel place. 6-10 beers latter we went to portlands famous "voodoo dohnuts" its a real small
dohnut shop which is open 24 hours! and OMG im not normaly a huge donut fan but they had everything. we all obviosly went for what there best known for.
the maple bacon dohnut...........................i was eating it thinking why do i like this?????????? this is sooooooo wrong hahahahah
but yes. it was amazing



we woke up the next day with our sore heads and went off riding 2 parks, the famous 'burnside' which is located under the freeway. rode there for an
hour or so before we got kicked off by the local skaters. well......they were all cool until one guy turned up n said no bikes allowed. oh well.
thats the joys of riding other ppls turf... the gayers lol. we then went for my first trip to hooters. the guys already have been 5 times haha.
