Oh, the unexpected happiness of not having to get in the car. I had totally convinced myself that it was ok, that it was even fun in spots. But now that I don’t have to get into the car until Monday, well, let’s just say I’m not feeling the love. <\/p>\n
We are in Washington DC, staying in a fancy hotel blocks from the White House (not ours, the president’s) and the National Mall (whereupon I will be shocked to discover there are no stores). I feel very much like a tourist. These other guests dressed (seriously dressed) for dinner, I even saw a tux.<\/p>\n
Maybe I’ll camp in the lobby and take pics of the fashion show tonight. We, however, are marked by our backpack, jeans and walking shoes, branded as hicks.<\/p>\n
Yesterday afternoon, we stopped at the overflow Air and Space Museum at Dulles Airport (Udvar-Hazy Center). Seeing the space shuttle Discovery was neat; seeing Enola Gay was inexpressibly sad. What is at the main Air and Space? And the American Art Museum has a video game exhibit. And I want to see the botanical gardens. C says we should at least walk by the White House and and and and.<\/p>\n
The plan is not to have a plan. We’ll go to the mall and just go where we will. We are going to miss stuff but there is just too much to do in a weekend. Sigh.<\/p>\n
I’ll send you picture!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
