The Portland skyline from the Japanese Gardens in Washington Park. I think that Mount Hood is blending in with the clouds.
After the Japenese gardens, we walked down to the International Rose Test Garden.	When we visited, over 10,000 roses were planted in lined beds on a hillside.	Given the frequent rain, beautiful Saturdays might be a rarity in Portland...
...but the nice weather also meant that navigating the rose garden was more difficult given the half dozen wedding parties sprawled around taking pictures.	Our lodging for the night at McMenimans Edgefield.
