Spend your next weekend away in Portland If you’re looking for a quick getaway but can’t lose anymore vacation time, spend your next weekend away in Portland .  Sometimes overshadowed by its neighbor Seattle, this city is anything but inferior. Situated amongst mountain ranges, rivers, ponds and forests, this urban area doesn’t seem to contradict its natural setting, but rather work with it.  Portland residents aren’t afraid of the outdoors and visitors are encouraged to take advantage of all the biking, hiking, climbing and kayaking they can possibly bear. Book your stay from July 23- July 26, and witness the laid back and close-knit community that Portland prides itself on maintaining.  While you’re there, you can attend the opening of the PDX Bridge Festival, a gigantic light, fabric and art installation cast over the Hawthorne Bridge.  There are plenty of other activities available from the typical Portland Farmers Market to artsy night clubs in the Pearl District.

CONTEST CLOSED: Congrats to Chris G and trixtersme who will be joining me for The Manila Machine Truck Tasting! Being a Filipino Blogger, I always try to support Filipino food efforts in Los Angeles, primarily through meals in Filipino restaurant hosted through my dining group , as a way to introduce people to what Filipino food is all about. Filipino food is still very much an untapped cuisine and is usually the most associated with just lumpia (egg rolls) and pansit (noodles).

As a former Disney Cast Member, I’ve always refused to go to that “other park”, they were the enemy, opening Universal Studios the summer I was on the College Program at Disney.   Now that I’m more “mature”, and with the opening of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter; it was time to give in and spend some time at Universal. Our vacation happened to line up for the week of the grand opening of Harry Potter.  I knew the park was going to be packed beyond packed so I did what any good travel agent would do and researched my options.  The three Universal Resort Hotels offer what looked to be the answer: a Universal Express pass that allows you to skip all of the lines on participating rides AND gains you early entry in to the park.  I also knew that you could buy a head of the line pass, but at $60-$87 per person per day, it made more sense to look at staying on site and getting all of the resort benefits.  I also learned that the pass you can buy, is not exactly the same as the one included for resort guest.  The “bought pass” is only good for 1 day, and can only be used once per ride/attraction.  The resort guest Express Pass is good from check in through check out and can be used multiple times on the rides/attractions.

In my book, there’s now one less reason to visit the town of Foligno in Umbria – but Foligno’s loss is Spello’s gain. In Dream of Italy’s Special Report: Umbria , editor Kathy McCabe wrote about the one-of-a-kind chef Salvatore Denaro and his popular trattoria in Foligno.
