Friday: Well, we woke up in Courtyard Marriot off of Carmen Dr. Exit. We were in room 218 and 216 and we had to switch to room 101. We went to have breakfast at the Bistro, but the asian lady who got baba's coffee was slow, so we left and headed for downtown. We drove around for breakfast. As we went over the bridge and saw three huge navy ships!!! They were so cool. They were here for the week for the huge Rose Festival in portland. Well, our breakfast choices were chinatown, sugaa mama's, and the original. On adler and 10th mom found Jake's. Very very very fancy pancy. We missed breakfast by about 10 min. Our waitress was an asian lady with huge fake eyelashes. They were cool. Baba and I got strawberry lemonades. I got a burger and tried crab cakes. Both were an A+. After we left, we went back to the hotel and baba and zakariyya went to the mosque. Susie came over to the hotel, and then we went to Trader Joe's. (It's an "organic" grocery store). Went to halto susie's house. Yay! Saw all the kids. Played basketball. Went to the hotel without zakariyya. He stayed back for Adam's graduation, and to sleep over. He was very picky about food. Well, the rest of us went to Salty's! Highway 5 North, take exit for Marine Drive, all the way down, then there it is. The most amazing seafood and view ever!!! I had salmon and summer had $60 worth of crab legs. I wanted to get a brownie for dessert, but I was good and shunned it away. Well, we left. But oh, I forgot my phone. "STOP THE CAR!!! TURN AROUND!!! I FORGOT MY PHONE!!" Humdillah...I got my phone that was sitting in the booth by itself.Went back to the hotel. Guess what we found in hana's suitcase. Her entire bed comforter. wow.and....goodnight. Baba..."It's cold in here!"
