| Washington, DC
Friday Night The plan: Go to DC and arrive around10pm
So first I end up leaving around 7pm instead of 630pm... and Min left NYC around 6pm thinking that I had left at the same time. So now he's arriving at a foreign city that he had never been to and I won't be there in time to pick him up... His bus arrives in Wash DC at 10pm and I am still on 270 about 40 mins away. Though that area is "popping" it is not a very safe location (more to that thought later)... As I arrive into the city, I hit every single red light as I try to pick up my baby and though my GPS says I am 5 mins away it takes me over 20 mins to get there... As I hyperventilate because Min is waiting and bums are all over the place... I stop at the spot on Penn Ave and see bums everywhere and no Min... arghhhhhh! Then like a beam of sunshine he peers over the corner and came to the car! Still hyperventilating and griping to the wheel... I feel horrible knowing that he waited who knows how long? We drive off to the hotel and I don't even know what to say except that I was sorry that it took so long... Insert why I left late: I watched Sex and the City at 430pm thinking the movie would be done by 630pm... but it was 137 mins w/o previews... and end Insert. So I totally expected Min to be furious at me. FURIOUS! But he wasn't... he wasn't, he was just happy to see me, so happy. *smiles*
Saturday Plan: Visit the capital
We slowly wake up around 11ish after our debacle the night before. We decide to drive to Chinatown, park, and walk to the Capitol and the rest of the sights of our wonderful Capital :) We walk around and eat lunch at Chipotle! Yummy! Though I still prefer Qdoba... so after we eat we leisurely walk to the spy museum! But we only walked around the gift store since the admission is $20... and it's not that worth it... we walk down 7th or 8th or 9th... we take a few pics and it's just a leisurely walk some more. So we arrive to the Capitol and I am going to describe the area around the Capitol: first there's beautiful fountain and trees all around with a very large parking lot. At this time in our story, we are walking down the sidewalk when thunder and lighting hits hard and loud in front of us! And before we know we are under a tree (not the safest place) so that the goblets of rain don't hit us... With only the Capital bldg nearby Min and I look at each other and he ponders, "How about we just get wet and go in the rain?" And the child inside thought, "YES!" So we did we walked from the Capitol to the the grassy area before the Washington monument soaking wet... then the high winds and stabbing rain hit us. We ran to theses little tents for cover. Me freezing cold and Min's fav green shirt elongating to a dress from the weight of the rain. The wind and rain were so strong we saw metal signs and trees branches fall to the ground... Thank God we found cover! Here's a pic of us between the rain... soaking wet :) but there is still more to this weekend...
