Real blossoms!

jaaajjj! saw some real blossoms today. isnt it pretty?! this is in portland, oregon, where we happened to be this morning... :)
some very general impressions of the states oregon and washington; defenitely more hippies here than in boston, and lots of people driving old cars (classics, just old, or just very crappy and many volvos), and more people on bikes. many more coffee places (and many cute very tiny drive through coffeebars along the road; tim now wants to start one in the netherlands) and the supermarkets actually have good bread. oh, and beautiful sights. amazing cloud formations (very different from the east us coast), empty beaches... (also so very different from the ones around boston!).
but now im tired, goodnight!

I am impressed about the trips that you take! People up north must be happy to see the flowering shrubs.

Portland hasn't gotten much snow this year - it looks like their trees are celebrating that! Yes, you can get good bread on this coast, and some good craft ales, too. (Sent you an email; I hope it made it through your spam filter.)
