Dinner at the Seven Stars Chinese Restaurant in Portland's Chinatown (coincidentally, the same place Mark, Julie, and the rest of the gang ate dinner the very next night) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Kailin's dad, Joe (right), probably wondered how his daughter talked him into this, but he was a trooper throughout all, even offering to pay for our dinner (which we, of course, would NOT let him do!) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Those two in the back, Jenny (green top) and Lillian (blue top), aren't really Marklings - they're Lew-sers! Jenny gets points for being the greatest James Lew fan, because she came all the way from Sweden! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Markling Maaike (right) is the most dedicated Mark Dacascos fan - she flew in from Holland, taking a day and a half to get to Portland and having to spend the night, alone in a foreign country, in (of all places) Chicago's O'Hare Airport while the planes were grounded due to severe thunderstorms. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Starving Marklings await their dinner, expertly ordered by Susie and Cathy, who know their way around the "genuine" stuff. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fun with fruit (and she claims that's not her beer in front of her). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Hey, who's taking pictures of who here? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
