Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

  Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos.  Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails. Their happy hour deal is a good one- during Ocho hour, everything on the happy hour menu is just $8! I went with a Miami Vice, a classic Pina Colada with Strawberry. This blended cocktail was so fruity and delicious. To eat I had two Carne Asada Street Tacos and a Birria Poquitos Burrito. The Burrito was small and served with a side of Consommé sauce. Both food items were tasty and satisfying.  My husband also had some Street Tacos and a Margarita from the happy hour menu. My sons had a Cheese Quesadilla and beans and rice. Everyone enjoyed their dinner. I first visited Poquitos in 2012, also for happy hour, and I remembered liking it then, too.

A Few More Highlights From Seaside

Like usual when I finish my last post from a trip, I'm always sad to be done posting about it.  So I'm doing a bonus post from our trip to Seaside featuring some highlights and things I didn't post about in the previous six posts.  It gives me a little conclusion and wrap-up and you get to see more photos.  It's a win-win.  Enjoy!


On the second day of our trip to Seaside we checked out the Seaside Aquarium.  It's always a fun time and we loved seeing the Sea Lions!

Some seashells we purchased from the gift shop at the aquarium, for the boy's rock and shell collection. 

In Astoria, we climbed all 164 steps to the top of the Astoria Column! The views were very pretty from the top, but a little windy. 




Even rainy days are fun when you're on a trip.  Luckily, it only rained a few days and we were able to enjoy some sun!


The carousel at the Carousel Mall on Broadway in Seaside was a blast for us and the kids!   

No visit to Seaside is complete without doughnuts from Dundee's. 

The Halloween decorations around the town were so cute!


Our family had such a good time at the arcade in Seaside, Funland.


The weekend brought many more visitors to the beach!

A visit to Sal's Pub for a Lemon drop cocktail was just the thing and gave me a little me time. 

Until next time, Seaside, Oregon!
