Drove to Portland August 1st. Our initial Airbnb canceled on us, so we found a new place in SE Portland. Our tiny place is about 300 square feet, but after a few days we have adapted. Very walkable neighborhood. We use the neighboring Latin restaurant picnic tables for breakfast and relaxation. Washington Park is amazing. Walked the Hoyt Arboretum and the International Rose Test Garden. The Vietnam Memorial and Holocaust Memorial are quite moving.

Portland has been a blast. Although we read about protests, we have not experienced any issues. Lots of homeless issues, similar to Seattle. Many enjoyable walking opportunities abound from Washington Park to the waterfront to various parks. And as always, we stay safe and wash our hands!
