Les Vacances!

This past week has been jam packed with every site to see in Oregon with our favourite French people! We took them into moss covered forests all around Portland. 

We spent summer-like early spring evenings canoeing on the lake, making dinner, playing cards, and playing frisbee in the backyard.

We introduced them to family, visited farmer’s markets, ate sushi, had a delicious dinner at Jake’s, and even made it onto the big screen while supporting our favourite French Blazer!

We risked the pouring rain to climb up and peer out over the Gorge and look up at Multnomah Falls. 

We made our way to the coast for a surprise afternoon of Beach fun and sunshine.

We picnicked admits high desert rocks while other international visitors braved the treck to the top and inner tubed all linked together during a snow storm afternoon in Bend. 

We topped it all off with a day trip to see one of the most outstanding sights in all of Oregon, the pristine Crater Lake (the cleanest large body of water in the world!). 

All in all, however, even though the sites were great and the adventure endless, it was the family who made the special effort to welcome us all, the laughter over cards, the first warm springtime nights, and the unforgettable memories we made created that made this spring break so wonderful.
