Portland was fun. Olivia and I went to the zoo, then Sonya, Olivia and I walked around the Pearl District. We ate at By Ways Cafe; the food was very good. Then we went to Powell's Books, a Portland landmark. The bookstore covers an entire city block. It is organized by different colored rooms. We headed to the rose room to browse the children's books. Then we we stopped by a gelatto shop and had a little Italian ice cream. It was delicious! Here are a few pictures from our recent travels.
