When we were in Portland we visited the Nike World HQ. When we arrived we went to a talk by the head of Running for Nike. Then we went on a tour around the Nike campus. All the buildings were named after famous Nike athletes. We got to go inside the Michael Jordon building and the Tiger Woods building. We saw their shoes and t-shirts and even their old school photos! There was a soccer tournament on so we got to watch a bit. There was a golf hole where Tiger Woods hit the golf ball into the hole from 300 yards away! In one of the buildings we saw from outside where they designed the gear (but we weren’t allowed in!). We then took a train to Seattle. We went there on Memorial day. It was the Folklife Festival. We looked around, went on rides , drank homemade lemonade and ate cotton candy. It was right under the Seattle Space Needle. After that Dad and I went to the experience music museum (www.empsfm.org). We got to play the guitar, keyboard and drums. We got to experience what it is like on stage. We sang ‘I Love Rock ‘n Roll’ and we sounded terrible! It was a fun day. Next we are off to Rochester.
