ROAD TRIP : Day 8 - D.C.

It’s like any other city but with more power. Every other building is an embassy, a government agency, an organization of some kind. When we drive I like to guess the country by its flag. Streets are convoluted though, circles, zig zags, narrow, diagonal. Thankfully we have GPS or we’d be in Canada by now.

I couldn’t believe I was here Sunday when we arrived. Rain greeted us then and it has rained since but not continuously. Humidity is the word.

Museums visited so far: National Portrait Gallery, Holocaust Museum, African-American Museum. Strolled in Georgetown and the mall. The usual sights. More to come.

Our apartment is very comfortable. Nicely decorated. Good to be in a home instead of a hotel. Slow mornings with long breakfasts.

We had lunch with Betty near her residence. She’s doing well. Today we’ll see her again.

I finally figured out the relationship between Maryland and D. C. No small feat.
