Before heading back home, Kenji and I went to the Wunderkind LEGO cafe near the University district.
And after saying goodbye to the Taylor gang, we stopped at The Old School Pizzeria in Olympia, WA for lunch. And this is what their bathroom looked like.
Mommy and I went adventuring with some friends to Beacon Rock in Stevenson, Washington. These 5-year-old legs walked to the top of a big ol’ rock 848 feet into the sky!
The best parts of the hike were when the path made an “overpass” over another path.
Sometimes I needed a milk break.
Mommy’s friend, Aliah, told me about the little islands in the Columbia River.
That’s Oregon over there!
That’s my buddy, Quinton.
After walking for an eternity, we finally made it to the top.
I told Aliah that the monsters on my knees are named Rocco and Taco.
Aliah’s daughter, Cay, is a squirrel whisperer.
I was happy to get back to solid ground after walking back down to the forest.
Mommy and I celebrated. We did it!
For Crystal and Chris’ final day, we crossed the border into Vancouver, WA. We walked the sleepy streets searching for lunch.
And we found it in Vancouver’s oldest diner (since 1932), Joe Brown’s Cafe. I tried eating my hamburger and chips with a fork because I’m very elegant.
How cool is this Vancouver mural??
Then we went back to Oregon to visit the Portland Japanese Garden. I found tons of bridges!
While we waited for Chubs’ dog sitter to drop him off at our usual meeting place, I got to play in this cool playground.
Thanks, Crystal and Chris, for a fun few days!
