Flugtag Portland

So its been a busy past couple of weeks. With a wedding and many cakes to be built and delivered, we haven't had too much time to relax or just do whatever. So this past weekend with not much planned we decided to head on down to the Flugtag on the waterfront in downtown Portland. We first met Andrea, Bruce and Sadie at the Screen Door for breakfast which was really great!!! Forgot the camera in the car or I would have had pictures of the enormous amount of food that we all ordered! The portions were so big that we had enough for leftovers for a few days which is always nice!

Then it was down to join the crowd for the festivities!! I am not sure how many people showed up but it was almost too many!! We managed to find a sliver of grass for 5 people to squat down on and waited for it to begin.

Emma and I had been to the first Flugtag that came to Portland in 2004 so we had an idea of what it was going to be like. I could describe what is involved but you can go HERE for a better idea. I was fun watching all the different "floats" or whatever you would call them go off the 25 foot tall ramp.

Here are some photos from the event.







More to come tomorrow on our "relaxing" weekend!
