Down in Dumbo

Dumbo is such a fun area of Brooklyn! A mix of artsy and industrial with the most amazing views of Manhattan. I went a few Sundays ago to stroll around and noticed some new murals and art pieces. The Dumbo Flea market was open as well and I bought some new art for our wall!

It is amazing how they have revitalized this area. It had become a tourist destination and a hot spot to hang out for locals. Another gem in the NYC world!

The Good. The Random. The Fun. v. 25

The Good:

We facetimed with the Israeli family on Friday. It's usually hard to get a mutual time, but since schools are closed they were home (and awake!) during our morning so we had fun chatting. Praying they can come to America for the summer like usual once the airport can open. 

The Random:
What in the glow worm beanie baby is this!?

The Fun:

We spent the day at the local outlet mall yesterday (insane in the heat, but hey the stores are frigid). I didn't get anything but always fun to get a retail fix.

Rose Garden

A trip to Portland in the summer is not complete without a stop at the Rose Garden! I hadn't been to PDX in June in a while so the roses were truly in perfect bloom. It was a stunning day and we took Luna along and she loves exploring all the smells.

It is amazing how many varieties they have at the garden. They work on grafting new ones and restoring seeds from some of the original types of roses ever known!

Portland Things

Just some Portland things from a few days in town!

The airport got a major renovation and it is stunning! The carpet, that is of course still there!

The cutest welcoming committee. Matilda wouldn't leave my side and Luna is just a fluff ball.

Graduation season at the local shops.

A trip to Portland means Salt&Straw! The seasonal vegan cherry pie flavor was great. There is an amazing new taquito place in Avi's neighborhood we had dinner at one night, too. We checked out a capybara boba cafe, sadly...no real capybaras.

I love flying into Portland in the summer because the odds that the mountains are out is pretty good. I got a good glance at St. Helens and Adams on my way in and out!
