Hoyt Arboretum: 9.00am to 1.00pm
Which opens from 10am to 3pm. Self guided 4 miles walk (~6.4km). Plants and trees include conifer collection, wedding meadow, sequoia collection, bamboo collection, ginkgo collection, larch collection, witch hazel collection, dogwood collection, maple collection, magnolia collection, winter garden and oak collection. We should stop by Vietnam Memorial grounds and have a look since it is located at the dogwood collection trail.

Silk by Pho Van:1.30pm-2.30pm

Pearl District: 3.00pm-6.00pm
No specifics. I had my 1st US team building in this area and it was intriguing. The random art all over the place, unique buildings, window shopping for fun. And this time I would want to bring my camera! http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g52024-d146839-Reviews-Pearl_District-Portland_Oregon.html
After 6.00pm-9.00pm
Take my Camry for maintenance over at the airport if time and strength permits. Dinner uncertain, if eating out I suggest Alberta Street for some Burger in the Bus. $5-$8. http://www.yelp.com/biz/burgers-or-bust-cafe-portland I might want to go to Fubonn too. If too tired will just skip both and go myself on Sunday.
