BOOKWOMEN LOOSE IN PORTLAND
Cathi & I took a little tour in Nob Hill before breakfast - lots of beautiful old apartment buildings and homes.
Breakfast was at the World Cup, directly across the street from the hostel.
We headed downtown for the market . . .
passing the House of Louie!
We stopped often along the way to pose and see the sights.
At the Willamette River, with the Burnside Bridge behind us.
Jane really got into the spirit of the market!
It is held every weekend under the bridge, and in the surrounding area.
Jimi Hendrix was there . . .
as well as other street musicians
and face painters.
This cat and his dog were enjoying the sunny day, too.
Robin reads in a courtyard at an art gallery,
which also proved to be a great spot for a group shot.
Finally, dinner at the brewery.
