Shopping:
woodburn outlet
washington square (like metrotown)
Pioneer place (downtown if u want LV, Tiffany etc.)
bridgeport village
Costco/Target/Walmart

Sightseeing:
Grotto (http://www.thegrotto.org/)
Zoo

Food:
I'm not too picky on food so I just eat in Cheesecake factory (washington square), Todai (pioneer place), or California Pizza Kitchen (bridgeport village)

If you stay longer time, I recommend Oregon coast.
I stayed in Starfish manor, and Cannery Pier hotel before, both are great.
Sightseeing: canon beach, aquarium, sealion cave, Tillamook cheese

I am going to Orgeon too. Only been there once by tour many years ago.
Planning to vists:
Portland: malls/outlets, weekend market.  
other: Mt Hood/Columbia Gorge (Vista House, Multnomah Fall), canon beach.   
I am planning to stay in hotel in the town close by but not in Portland city as Portland is just one of our stops, and save a bit in hotel away from city center (we just need clean and safe place to rest overnight), but not sure if it is far away from point to point.

Btw, any good sushi places in Portland or the coast to recommend?

I am planning to go to Portland on Canada Day.  Does anybody know how long the lineup usually is?

I am thinking if it worths a stay overnight in Bellingham on Wednesday night to avoid the lineup.  Any input would be very mucy appreicated!!  

Thanks a lot!

I'm going to Portland as well on Canada day via a bus tour, the travel agent said the line up will most likely be like other long weekend....some people will take Friday off too to make it a long weekend.

Also many people might go shopping in Washington state as there will be no sales tax starting July 1st

not bad the lineup ... we left @ June.30 6am and took only 15 minutes , return at Sunday 7 pm also took another 15 minutes ...

too bad - still have to pay tax @ Seattle Preium Outlet , Target store ok if show BC driver licence.

Although 5+ hr drive all the way to Portland outlet, stop @

ya long time no see.  There is one Ikea in Seattle and one in Portland.  I found the one in Portland is better than Ikea.  Some stuff (even when it's not on sale) can go as low as 50% of the price in Vancouver.
