powell's city of books

Powell's City of Books is the largest used and new bookstore in the world and occupies an entire city block. It is pretty overwhelming. Other than picking up a few books and doing a little shopping at Pioneer Square, we saw a crab king-konging it on a building, a parade of male and female brides and got a couple of old-fashioned homemade sodas to go with dinner. All I need now is for the Mavs to beat the Lakers and my day would be complete.
