Trip to Oregon and Washington

I had to travel to Portland for some training for work and Mike was able to go with me. After spending a couple of days in Portland we were able to head north to meet up with one of Mike's friends in Tacoma. He was gracious enough to be our tour guide and took us into Seattle where we were able to visit the Space Needle. Since I am so scared of heights, the best picture we could get was inside the space needle - we did venture outside, but it was pretty windy and I came back in pretty quick. It was incredible to see the city from such a height!

This is at the base of the Space Needle - the thing is absolutley enormous.

We were also able to go to the beach. This is the first time I have actually been to the beach in the daylight and it was absolutely amazing!!! Although I wasn't prepared for how freezing cold it would be - and we didn't even go in the water. We walked along the beach and found a few shells to take home to Kenneth.


This is at Canon Beach - in the background you can see Haystack Rock - apparently it is a famous place - they filmed part of the movie Goonies here. I mostly enjoyed just walking on the wet sand and having the water rush up the beach.
