Friday morning I spent finishing up 3 finals [and I will elaborate more on this in my next post]. This ended up being alright since Chad had a meeting to go to at 11 anyway. Friday was pretty laid back overall. Chad finally got back and we walked to downtown Portland along the Promenade. Here is a view of Promenade from just around the corner of Vesper St. -
Yup - the name of the road down by the water is called the Promenade - or, The Prom, as it is affectionately called by the locals. We stopped at a little hole in the wall place for some seafood chowder. Kerry and Chad got the seafood chowder in bread bowls and I got the Crab roll. Let me clarify - I'm not a big fan of seafood. So, the fact that I ate safood over the weekend is a big deal. My stomach turned, however, when I found a less than desirable piece of crab in the mix of crab meat. It took me a few minutes to get over the the nausea before I could finish my lunch. Kerry and I parused some fo the little shops in the area and then met up with Chad at an awesome little bar that had a TON of awesome beers. We had one then we walked back to Chad's place. Kerry and I bit it and napped until a little bit after 8. We got up, went to Whole Foods [beeteedubs - that store is brilliant], and then made an amazing dinner of grilled chicken, red and white cabbage sauteed with onions in peanut oil [um - yum. Making this most definitely], and barley. The three of us dined with Lauren [Chad's artsy fartsy hippie dippie roommate]. We played a round of Fill or Bust and we hit the hay. Next up - Acadia National Park.
