Brunch at the Wallflower

I met-up with Liz this morning at the Gene Cafe.

I lent her Fatty's Firewire, so she could connect her damaged MacBook Pro to an external monitor.

We were hungry, so we walked over to the Wallflower for something to eat.

LOL!  We both ordered the Vegan Benny, but with Eggs.  It was really good!

Thanks for brunch Liz!!!  :-)

Portland Trip (Day 1)

Alesha and I got-up pretty early in the morning to catch our train at the Pacific Central Station. Here's our choo-choo train, the Amtrak Cascades. I was pretty excited because it was my first time riding on this line. We sat in Coach, but it was actually pretty comfortable in this car. The Badger and I on our way... I was trying to keep an eye out for Clark Kent running beside us. Passing under a couple of bridges in Everett... We also had a waterfront view from here! I can practically see down the whole train from here. LOL! Alesha and I had to watch the same movie (Picnic at Hanging Rock) on separate computers because neither of us had an audio splitter for our headphones. I finally was able to order the Ivar's Clam Chowder on our train. I tried to get it earlier, but it wasn't ready yet. Yay, after almost 9 hours of travel, we finally arrived in Portland! "That's Union Station!" So, this is how it looks inside. Train stations must have the same architect or something. ;) Here comes a MAX Light Rail! This train is free within the downtown core, so we took it to an Enterprise Rent-A-Car Centre. It's so spacious inside! Oh man, they've got hanging bike racks in here! I like this city. Inside our suite at the Park Lane Suites & Inn... I'm sleeping out here. The kitchen... This is Alesha's bedroom. Her POV... The washroom... After we settled-in, Alesha and I drove down to Milwaukie to pick-up my cousin, Gloria! This was our first time meeting each other. We've talked on the phone and emailed each other on a bunch of occasions, but we never got to meet in person until now! We all went out for dinner at Pok Pok! I really wanted to eat at this place ever since I saw it featured on "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives". It was busy here! There were a lot of people waiting in-line too! Ate Gloria ordered the Yam Khai Dao. I had the Muu Paa Kham Waan. Alesha got Tam Kai Yaang. I also ordered their Cha Yen, but it wasn't sweet enough. I did enjoy my meal though. First cousins... Posing with the Badger... And now all of us! After dinner, we drove down to Clackamas Town Center for a little shopping. Look what I saw at the StarWarstore.com! It's the Millennium Falcon! This is a special edition model by Master Replicas. Ate Gloria and Yoda... One more shot of my favourite Corellian Freighter. It was great to finally meet you, Ate Gloria!!!
