NOMNOMNOM

Here's an iPhone round-up, brimming with lovely California and Oregon images of sun, sand, trees...and food.  Portland is a magical unicorn rainbow land of vegan food.


Thought this was a great name. Found in Monterey.



17-mile drive on Pebble Beach, California.


Pebble Beach.





A very sleepy Tanya at the Saturn Cafe in Santa Cruz after a long day in Monterey.



Rock climbing on Mile Beach in San Francisco.

A plantain taco, a chard taco and a zucchini taco at Gracias Madre in San Francisco.


A San Francisco sunset.


Mary gave Eric this super cool Camel cigarette matching t-shirt and shorts set.


Eric having a morning grapefruit at our campsite in Yosemite National Park.


Wine tasting in the Russian River Valley.


This puppy lived at one of the wineries.


We were near the Charles M. Schultz airport in Santa Rosa, so there were Snoopy statues.  Just like home.



While walking around Healdsburg, California on our wine tour we saw this statue that Eric aptly noticed looks like it is puking.  Lovely.







Our first night in Portland we ate at Off the Griddle, a food cart that serves vegan and vegetarian burgers.  This is a vegan bacon cheeseburger.  





Another dinner, this time pizza at Sizzle Pie in Portland.



Thai BBQ salad at Blossoming Lotus in Portland.



We stumbled on the Portland Brewer's Festival, one of the biggest beerfests in the country.






You could place a pin from where you came from.  There was an international map as well.


Eric drinking Summit.  M-I-N-N-E-S-O-T-A.





Tofu Po'Boy after the brewfest at Hopworks Urban Brewery in Portland.





Bike lighting at Hopworks.





We met Christie and Ryan at a friend's wedding in May. They live in Portland and met up with us at Hopworks.  Beer. Yum.





Vegan benedict at Portobello Trattoria in Portland.  Ridiculously delicious.




 Really cool wall at Portobello.  Also, brunch coma.





A bamboo frame bicycle.

More from Portland to come!
