Well, no, that’s a lie. Blistered feet are blistered feet are blistered feet. And they hurt like a hell.
But it’s okay if you got blistered feet because you spent an afternoon in a happy place. Last Saturday, I went with the boyfriend and his family to Mountain View Nature Park. While we left the resort just before dusk and we didn’t get to enjoy the city lights, it was still a fun afternoon spent climbing 400+ steps (thus, the blistered feet) to a rope course, swimming at the pool under friendly clouds, eating comfort food, and watching Last Resort. Yeah, I brought my netbook and watched the latest episode. I HEART Scott Speedman.

If you find yourself in my fine city, going to Mountain View is highly recommended. Weird animal and human-like statues aside, this place offers loads of fun for the whole family. Just, you know, wear comfy footwear.

FUN!
In July my BF and I went to Portland OR for vacation and we wanted to see the japanese garden and rose garden, but had to walk almost 3 miles to get there. Needless to say I was not prepared! When we got to the gardens an hour later we saw the bus that took only 5 minutes to get there… But then he proposed and I was no longer grumpy…

Oh fantastic! It looks so beautiful in that park. Especially that mountain view.

I’ve only been there twice last year. I came back just this week so that makes it three times only that I biked my way up to the mountains and just passed by Mt. View. I’d love to stay overnight there again. Puhon! Lovely photos, btw. Especially the 5th one. =)
