Once a year, I'll get a cheap hotel room and the kids get to eat sugary cereal, watch cartoons and go swimming. This is the life! I asked Joseph what his favorite part of Portland was, and he said, "Froot Loops!" I never buy that stuff, but if it's at the free hotel breakfast...     . . . . . . Wait, we did stuff in Portland too, not just hung out in the hotel. We planned just one major outing each day, because, traveling with kids. DAY 1: We played "I Spy" through the galleries at the Portland Art Museum. The contemporary wing was my favorite. Joseph saw someone he knew, and we found a Calder mobile for Paul. . . . . DAY 2: OMSI. Not going to lie, it makes my tiger mom heart skip a beat to see my boys in the chemistry lab wearing safety goggles. We loved making flubber! . . . . PDX requisites: Voodoo Donuts and Powell's City of Books. . . . DAY 3: Oregon Zoo. Go Cougs.
