I went on the Portland Study Tour from Thursday November 8Th to Sunday November 11Th. Portland is the largest city between San Francisco and Seattle, and 24Th largest in the U.S. Portland is in the State of Oregon. There were 3 things I really liked about this tour.First, I like a basketball game. Portland Trail Blazers are a professional basketball team based in Portland, Oregon, so the team is NBA!! I watched the game, and I saw many 3 point shoots and dunk shoots. I was very excited about the game. Portland Trail Blazers won, so I was very happy and I cheered for them. This was the most exciting thing for me on the tour.
Finally, I liked shopping time. I was looking forward to going shopping before I went there because we went shopping several times, and Oregon State has no sales taxes!! That's why, shopping time was an enjoyable thing for me. I bought many things, for example, key-chains, bath goods, glasses, anklets and so on, but these are all souvenirs for other people. I also bought some things for me, for example, a tumbler and post cards, but the new ipod was the most expensive item I bought on this tour. I spent much money on this tour, but I was satisfied with the shopping. I could buy the all of the souvenirs I need it, so this was the most satisfactory thing for me on this tour.
Next, I liked Multnomah Falls. This is a waterfall on the Oregon side of the Columbia River Gorge, and it is the second tallest year-round waterfalls in the US after Yosemite Falls. It was very beautiful and clear, and it had pure minus ion, so my heart was cleared by them. Also, I hiked up to the top of the waterfalls, so it was good exercise for me. This was the most healing thing for me on the tour.

But, Portland is tempting for me still now, so I want to go there again someday. I'm going to buy many more things the next time because there are no taxes!!!
