Topics: things to do in vancouver and portland area
Looks like we're going to be here for another week - our car got hit and the front window cracked by flying rocks and debris on the AlCan.
So looking for things to do.
Went to Powell's bookstore - that was cool...
Anything else to do?

What are you into?
Beer?-
OOOh Beer not really - but love the atmosphere of breweries and pub houses.
I really enjoyed Powell's bookstore and the area around it. -
Yes, beer. -
ROFLMAO - well of course...

Smithsonian, you can get lost in there for days!-
She means Washington State
-
Oohhh jajajajaja my bad!

ROFLMAO --- You know --- I KNOW --- KNOW - the Smithsonian is near WASHINGTON DC but I still turned around and asked if the Smithsonian was here... LMAO!
That is so bad. -
It's is you, the Americans fault! Why name your capital city the same as a state that is no-where near! jajajajajaja

Apart from the car thing, how is everything else?-
totally awesome - we're having fun on the trip... Meeting people and enjoying the scenery and things to do.
So I'm currently in Kelso WA - hanging out with family - and enjoying the relaxation.
First day slept like I've never slept before (like the dead and 12 straight hours... LMAO!)
But woke up and have been going ever since.
Went shopping - ate at this killer taco place that is like a mexican McDonalds - but it is soooooo good. Called Muchas Gracias.
Wow - the tacos there are to die for.
Perfecto!
Then we went to Powell's bookstore and spent HOURS and HOURS looking around and drinking coffee in the shop there - and talking to people at the tables - then walking on some of the streets and looking in the windows of the stores...
Then we just kinda drove around here.
We're probably here until the 2nd then we'll continue on our merry way.
Which is fun as all get out!
How are you and the Mum? -
Oh sounds like great fun, a proper road trip
When will you reach your final destination?
Mum is doing great, should be home soon. -
We're hoping to have the car fixed by the 2nd - and be on to the road...
Again... LOL!
I have no idea how long it will take to get across the states - but I figure about 10 days "ish"...
Possibly a couple days less or more - depending on how I feel and the weather.
And of course if there is anything wacking fun that stops us on the route... Yanno - like a good bordello or something (*grin*) -
Oh how naughty

WW: A picture is worth a thousand w..
Why dont you post some? -
I second the bird. Pics please! Your road trip sounds like so much fun. -
I'm going to be in Kelso on Friday. Small world!-
Let me know!
Me and the hubby are up for coffee or lunch - or even WalMart!
LOL! -
haha. The Wal Mart in Longview is the worst.
Will talk to wife about it

BTW, Very sorry for the accident. Hope everyone is unhurt.
