Already ? Here 7 days , midweek but it is Day 5 ? Oh well , better pack in some fun last 6 days 🤓 Heading across the river today for a nooner with new bestie Chelsea. Then a tour…. Ok let’s head over early and explore the district but first a walk around this neighbourhood and check out some stuff. Portland is not known for any great Hollywood tie ins but there is a major pop culture one. Nope not Portlandia but rather this
Groening was of course born here and many characters are drawn from street names or combo of same such as “Montgomery Park on Burnside”
After usual coffee back home to plan next sozzlefest . Looks like all I need is a bus card, a cut lunch and an ankle brace . Sweet . Weather is the usual – cloudy and drizzly with occasional bursts of sunlight . Caught the 15 bus to SE Belmont and went on a bit further to check out some street art
Checked out the neighbourhood in general and then lined up at Cascade Brewing to kick off . Lizzie and Chelsea duly arrived and then another young lady Sarah joined the group # DCM what can I say ? Once again a great tour with a varied range of beers to try including some odd sour beers
As we walked through the Southeast there were some great murals as always
Sadly the tour came to an end but Chelsea and I decided to check out a Cider place as you do . Interesting to say the least and quite alcoholic of course
Time to catch an Uber home as who wants to mix with the GU on a bus home at 5 pm? Let’s try for a good nights sleep as another full day tomorrow with Segway and Haunted Pub tour at night . Should only leave 43 breweries to check out on Friday
