Trine's life in Seattle: Portland and Football!

11/2/12 – 11/4/12

The last weekend was so good – a wonderful trip and football!

PORTLAND!

Friday Simone, Line and I finished school early, so we had decided to go to Portland in Oregon – the tax-free state! So at about 12.30 we were on our way to Portland!

Since it was only one night, we had decided that you could take a more expensive and luxury hotel – so what is better than a Hilton Hotel?!

When we got to the hotel, we were very exited to see our room – and we did not get disappointed at all! So before we went out shopping, we had to be at the hotel just for a little bit! All three of us felt like “rich kids” J. After some time at the hotel we went out to see the city and of course to SHOP! The first shop we went to was Apple, where we all got a new Ipad – our small babies! We had some more shopping and dinner before we went back to the hotel. We wanted to be at the hotel as much as possible, because it was so good – so we were back about 9pm. When we got back, we got this idea, crazy some would say – but we decided to order room service for some dessert. That was really funny to try, but also expensive! We were up almost the whole night, to enjoy our dessert, the new things we had bought and the room!

The next day we went down to have some breakfast – luckily we had paid for it, as we had ordered our room. But the breakfast was really good and the other people on the hotel just starred at us – also kind a fun, to see how big difference there were on the people that were on the hotel in Vancouver and here, because here you could easily see that they got some money!

But after the breakfast, we went up to our room to pack our stuff, so we could go shopping, again! So at 3.30pm we went back home again.

We had such a good time all three of us and we really enjoyed it - even though it was a very expensive trip!

Arrived to Portland – lovely city!

Ready for Hilton hotel and luxury!

We can’t wait to see our room!

The lovely room, with huge beds!

The delicious dessert that we ordered!

and our new babies!!

SPORT!

Sunday it was time for one more American football game – this was just much bigger, because it was a professional game. So the whole class and I went to Seattle to watch Seattle Seahawks vs. Minnesota Vikings. Since I’m really like sports, I think it was such a cool experience and I’m so glad that we all went to it!

Number one: I have never been on such a big stadium just for sport!

Number two: The support to the teams were amazing!

Number three: It is so cool that the fans are mixed over here – just behind us there were two Seahawks fans and three Vikings fans and they didn’t do anything to each other – I wouldn’t dare that in DK!

I really think we could learn something from the Americans when it comes to this!

But the best thing of it was, that Seattle Seahawks ended up winning the game 30-20!
