Even though I grew up in Vancouver I really never ventured into Downtown Portland much. Maybe a few times a year for shopping or something, but that was about it.
Jason is very intrigued by Portland...though I think it has something to do with all the Breweries! Which is okay with me. We've made it a goal to get into Portland at least once a month to try somewhere new to eat/drink/play!
This week past weekend we ventured down to Portland's Saturday Market which was fun to walk around and will be even more fun to go back and spend some money someday when we have it! After that we were going to go to VooDoo Doughnut (the one from Man vs. Food) but the line was out the door, and around the corner...too long we thought! Especially since we knew we were coming back during the week.

So on Tuesday mid-afternoon we ventured down to Portland to get copies of our marriage license. We decided that since we were down there...we might as well head into downtown to VooDoo and it was well worth it! Getting there about 12noon we only had to wait about 20 minutes, and that was mainly because of one (crazy) woman! Yes, 12noon...the "perk" of one of us being a school teacher on summer vacation and one of us seeking employment (which...good news on that front...more later)!
Jason wanted to try a Bacon Maple Bar...but they were out so he settled for a gigantic apple fritter. I stuck with a plain Maple Bar, though next time promise to branch out a bit more!
All in all it was a fun place to go and we can't wait to try out the next place...whatever that may be!
