KERR / JAPANESE GARDENS
Sometime Again in the Future
INCLUDED: Escort, transportation, Lunch, admissions
.
We recently checked out a lunch stop recommended to us in Portland. We found it to be "almost a destination all its own." Lunch is included at the ALBERTINA KERR STORES & RESTAURANT in Portland. Besides a lovely lunch, you will have time to browse through their economy jar collectables, gift shop and thrift shop. It used to be a children's home until govt. regulations convinced them to close. Efforts now are directed to adopting children into good homes. The Stores & Restaurant are run completely by volunteers. The food is a set lunch with possible alternate selections. Food was delightful and service was great. Volunteers are there to please YOU and not just because they need a job. The shops had quite a nice selection of quality items.
Next we head across town to the Japanese Gardens, loc ated a djacent to Washington Park. We will have to park at the street level, but there is a shuttle to take you to the Garden Level and return. This is always a pleasant garden to stroll through. It should all amount to a wonderful day. Come along and invite your friends to join in on the fun. RESERVE ASAP and send payment.
