Monday... Time to Visit DC!

Monday only has one picture to it, as we were traveling all day. We got up early in the morning and repacked the car. After checking out of the hotel, we met some of the stragglers for breakfast and farewells. I was so sad I actually teared up in the car. But we were not heading home, but rather heading towards Washington D.C. where we were going to be staying with our friends Yarngeek and Madwabbit and their adorable daughter Plum.

On our way out of town, and before we reached Church on Fire! (Please note: that is the actual name of the church.) We got a picture of this beautiful car:



The ride took the morning and into the afternoon. We arrived safely, spent the afternoon getting settled in, and caught a viewing of Empire Records. (Damn the man, Save the Empire!!) When we got hungry, we went out and grabbed some Thai food in Old Alexandria.
Old Alexandria was awesome! It had the older houses pushed together and made me think of what the old colonial city looked like at the beginning. The street we were on had tons of fun store fronts, and after dinner we strolled down and got ice cream from a great home made place. (I got one... Stomach be damned!)
Afterwards we went back to the Yarnwabbits house, and hung out and chatted for a bit until it was time to go to bed. We were all worn out because it was a travel day. I fell asleep dreaming of the sight seeing that was to come!
