I just got back from a whirlwind trip to Portland (literally one night) and really enjoyed being a part of a big city again. Something refreshing and intriguing about that city.
If you are looking for a easy family trip, Portland is a great choice. You can drive 9 hours from Sun Valley or hop an easy 1 hour flight from Boise.
While there, you MUST visit the Portland Zoo. We are a big zoo family and that zoo is my favorite of all time, especially the elephant exhibit. www.oregonzoo.com
Perfectly enough, right across the parking lot, is the fantastic Portland Children's Museum where kids can explore and imagine all day long. www.portlandcm.org
Both of those venues can offer a day full of family fun time that every parent dreams about.
Now that I'm back and Thanksgiving is almost here, I'm super excited about Christmas in our dream town of Sun Valley. As much as I cherish and adore summertime, this is the most magical time of year around here. The snow, the lights, the events. Plus, now that Sun Valley is celebrating its 75th year (Happy Birthday!) it should be one of the best years ever.
