Photos of the Week
Week 22 Assignment: Travel Photography - Portland
This week I hit the road and headed to Portland, OR. I was there for a short time with some good weather and some bad weather, which is the norm for the Pacific Northwest in June. I happened to be there during the Rose Festival, which Portland is known for along with their beautiful Rose Garden.
The first four photos are from the Rose festival; a fun fountain near the riverfront with the city in the background, a ferris wheel from the carnival, an old time bicyclist, and the band performing for the crowd to prepare for the parade. The next couple are from the Rose garden with Heather taking in the sweet scents and a close up of one of the many types of roses to be seen. Following these are a few shots of the modern downtown of Portland with their very stylish bus/train stops and the buses and light rail that can get you just about anywhere you want to go in Portland. Finally, the most important place in the Portland area...Fuddruckers, the best burger place and a must stop if you are there.

Bear in mind that the special advantage of vagabonding is the experience of not really knowing what happens next, which you can obtain at bargain rates in all cases....The challenges you face offer no alternative but to cope with them. And in doing that, your life is being fully lived. Flights to kathmandu
