Set off to Portland today. Craig, who was on our bus from Vancouver to Seattle and staying at the same Hostel as us was also there! Once arrived in Portland had a half hour search for the number 14 bus but finally arrived at the Hostel. OH MY GOD! Its a hippified, eco-friendly house with grass on the roof, recycling boxes everywhere, tents in the garden and our room is in the basement!!! Once checked in found our beds and there's a Korean guy asleep in Kate's. She politely said "Er excuse me Iv paid for that!" and he moved but then latched onto us like a leech! He also stroked Alex's hair which was a little creepy! Went to the shop for supplies and sneaked some Mikes Hard Lemonade into our room, not allowed alcohol on site!!
Next day after a lie in headed to the library for free internet and booked our tickets to San Fransisco on the Greyhound, yet another 15hour bus journey to endure!Made tea and spent the rest of the evening trying to avoid Korean man!
After a terrible nights sleep (snoring people, sleep talking people and thundering feet down the stairs!) Alex woke Kate with a start to say Korean man was sat in a chair watching us sleep, final straw. Complained to the manager and have been moved to an all female dorm feel much better.Had a stroll around the neighbourhood, everything is very 'hey man' and veggy restaurants! Went to the cinema to see Blades of Glory where you could buy Pizza and Beer and eat it on tables in the theatre! How cool! Got home and Wojtkiw sewed her shoes back together, all this walking is taking its toll!!
Off to San Fransisco tomorrow so stay tuned xxxxxxx
