96 Hours in Portland, Oregon 

96 Hours in Portland, Oregon - What to See When Visiting
If you only have 96 hours to visit Portland, Oregon, you have plenty of time to see a lot - and time to get outside the main city, too. My friends and I visited Portland and found lots of things to do and see. Here's our trip to Portland, Astoria, Cannon Beach, and more.
Things to Do in Portland Oregon:
Oregon has some great coffee and donuts. If you're a fan of one, or both, I'd suggest starting your day with a new place each morning. Some of places we visited:
Stumptown Coffee- one of my favorites.
Upper Left Roasters
Blue Star - unique looking donuts, good coffee too.
Voodoo Doughnut- This is in a category of it's own. This place is super trendy and there's always a line out the door. If crazy donuts are your thing, this is the place to go. If standing in line is your thing, this is the place to go. Also, cash only, but they do have an ATM inside.
Food in Portland Oregon:
I'd definitely suggest checking out the street food. Food carts/trucks line the streets and you can take your pick from one of the many. Many of them also have been on TV/food competitions.
Also, since Portland is just the hipster/trendy capital of everything they have some great restaurants to try. Here are the ones we tried
Weird things to see in Portland:
The Boeing 727 aircraft sitting in the forest. A man decided to live in the woods, but his home is not a house. It's an aircraft. He towed in a 727 to call home. It's been there for years and is quite a sight. He's even willing to give tours sometimes. Just be respectful and get permission to go on his property before setting out for this one.
Cool things to do in Portland:
Find the waterfalls - Portland has a lot of waterfalls around. Just a short drive east and you'll find Multnomah. One of the most popular ones. But there are plenty of other fun ones to find on your own too. When we visited, Multnomah was closed off to the public, but we found some alternates that were still great.
Road trips outside of Portland:
Astoria - A port city northwest of Portland. It's a quiet town, but being right on the water makes it extremely relaxing. Also, this is the town of the famous Goonies house. But I wouldn't get your hopes up if you're expecting to see it up close. Apparently, due to a lot of "fans" trespassing, littering, and being verbally abusive to the home owner, tours and even getting close to the house are not allowed. You can still get a decent photo from the neighborhood though. But the neighbors will probably hate you.
Cannon Beach - A beautiful beach with the awesome Haystack Rock. This is a great place to chill year-round and an awesome place to watch the sunset.
I hope you liked my video of our trip to Portland, Oregon. I'd love to go back in the summer and visit again. There is so much nature around the city and plenty of places to eat and drink in the city. Nature or city person, it's a great place to check out.
