Back in Texas
okay, i'm back in texas....sorry about no new updates. i'm new to the whole blogging thing and couldn't figure out how to get back into my page. silly me. i had a blast in dc and pennsylvania! i ended up modifying my trip from the original plan because there was so much to see! instead of going up to philly one day and the amish country in lancaster county, i went into the city (dc) again w/my brother, and still didn't get through all that was on the list! i suppose i'll just have to go back someday. darn! what a bummer. : ) i did see president bush twice, though! i'll give more details later and i'll try to figure out how to add some photos for everyone to see when i get on my own computer and am connected to the net. until then, happy monday and toodle-loo!
Greetings from Washinton, DC!
okay, so right now i'm actually in virginia, but hey! i'm pretty close and spent most of my day today in the city! i took the metro after church and caught the st. paddy's day parade (lots of fun with 2 different bagpipe groups), and then i sat outside the natural history museum and ate my sack lunch. (one of the most recent things i've learned while here: the smithsonian is
not just one museum! it's a whole bunch! today i saw one and part of another one.) after finishing my lunch i noticed i was sitting across from the dept. of justice building so i took a few snapshots before heading into the natural history museum.
after leaving the natural history museum i took some shots of the smithsonian castle (my aunt tells me this is where many of their offices and administrative staff works) before heading next door to the national history museum (american history and culture-related stuff). i only made it through one part before closing time, but this
will be on my itinerary sometime in the next 2 days!
