Itinerary, I think... arhhh I don't care

So, i've got about 12 more hours until i'm off with my solo trip. I think i've done a pretty good job on what my plan is for the next few days. I know some of you have expressed some concern about me going solo on this one, so i'll try and keep you guys in the loop, so you don't see some news flash about a lil' asian girl lost in the gorge or something. Ok that's not funny, i know.

So it's looks like i picked a good time to go to Portland. There is this big Rose Festival while i'm there. I guess it's a pretty big thing with tons of events, rides, parades, etc. So my plans involve some of things surrounding the festival.

Alright here is my plan. I've considered some variables like weather, the festival, and all the stuff i want to see.

WED (it's suppose to rain, so this is what i think i could do based on the weather)
arrive to PDX
take the train or subway to Downtown
go to Powells book store
Museum of Advertising
Portland Museum of Art

THURS
Running to check out the city
Gorge... two trails that i'm thinking about, but i'm going to go to the visitor center first and scope out the place.
The Grotto (it's in portland, so i'll hit that when i get back)
Japanese Gardens in Washington Park
Pearl District art walk at nite

FRI
Running to check out the city
Drive to the Coast to Cannon Beach, walk along the beach and check out the tide pools
Go to Tillamook Cheese Company... going to check out some CHEEEZZZZEEEEE
Cape look out point.
Rose Festival firework display

SAT
Go to the Sat Market
Chinese Gardens
Pearl District... SHOPPING!
Pittock Mansion
(possible enter a 5k at nite... we'll see)
Roam around at the Rose Festival at nite.

Sunday
Chill and do some shopping...
Fly back

So, it's not totally crazy, right? I know i'm probably not going to get to everything or maybe even half. Right now, I think i'm really into this idea of observing people, drinking a ton of coffee and eating. Although, I hope i meet some friendly people. I'm sure i'll get lonely, so this will force me to be nice and maybe smile. (i think i look like a bitch when i don't know people anyone).

So, I'll be taking a bunch of pix, so hopefully you will be visually engaged in this. I know... my words are boring.
