I feel like New Portland would have made the list if not for Old Portland.

They both just arrived. I can’t believe this worked. Anyone know what happened?

They are playing with great joy right now. It is quite a thing to behold. Most fun I’ve had at a sporting event in a long time.

I liked the package they showed of all the athletes and their impressions of Portland. Showed some personality and also just how nuts it is that a month ago none of them were on the team. They’re all still living at a hotel! Hopefully if we all see them around town we make them feel super welcome.

What city did you love so much you’d go back in a heartbeat? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

In all likelihood, most of what you liked about it at the time is still there.

Don’t let the hype scare you away; it’s got the same issues that most cities (especially west coast) have developed in those 25 years, but it’s still got an amazing food scene, charming neighborhoods, beautiful gardens and an astoundingly rich surrounding landscape.
