portland: night one

amazing peace arch sculpture?
I haven't had a chance to go through many of my photos from our Portland trip yet, but I thought I'd share these few from our drive down and first night there. What a great first night we had! A bit of a traffic-filled drive before we were able to check in at the Jupiter Hotel, have a drink at a bar on the top floor of a cool building on Burnside, late-night waffles in a parking lot (while listening to Fugazi), and finally an ultra-late-night hang out in Ryan and Amanda's hotel room. Oh hai, Portland! More photos soon!

  4. did you just say fugazi?!?! i think we're meant to be friends ;)

    late night waffles sound so good, and now i'm thinking about how much i'd like a big fat waffle topped with powdered sugar!

  5. Late night waffles are definitely the best thing ever. I was skeptical until I tried one...oh man...so delicious! I think it was actually the fugazi that drew us in and sealed the deal. A waffle truck blasting fugazi at 1AM? An irresistible combination of things, if ever there was one. :)

  6. Haha, awesome! I heard that the guys who run this place all live together in a small apartment, which is so hilarious! All these dudes living and working together... oh man.

  7. I can't even imagine running a waffle truck with a bunch of roommates. Crazy life, I'm sure. They've really got something great going on though!
