Sigo Journeys-- Where to Next?

Second mileage run of the year. We decided to explore Portland since we have never been there. The weather was not great, and it was drizzling the entire weekend. We read about these fantastic cupcakes at this place called CupcakeJones. The cupcakes are filled with some decadent filling from mint ganache to berry jam. We tried four different types of cupcakes!

We went to Ringside Steakhouse specifically for two things—steak and onion rings. Ringside is on Tom Horan’s list of best steakhouse and James Beard has claimed their onion rings as “the best I’ve ever had.” Ringside delivered. The steak was awesome and we definitely agree with James Beard.

The flight to Amsterdam was priced just right to allow us to fly there for the weekend. It was our first official mileage run of the year. This is our second trip to Amsterdam (previously in August 2007). The buildings along the canal are so charming—we spent the weekend mainly just wandering the city, also stopping by the Van Gogh museum. We love Amsterdam!
