Last week was Spring Break, and I spent it in DC visiting my old roommate. I was only there for 5 days, but I saw a lot. Of course, I could definitely go back and see all new things. We took a walk around the memorials and the capitol. I had a tour of the capitol and heard the lecture at the Supreme Court. I saw the Constitution at the National Archives.
The weather was beautiful and warm. A couple of days I didn't even need a coat. Here I am walking to the Jefferson Memorial.
The FDR Memorial is pretty interesting, divided into sections that represent his four terms in office, with plenty of photo opportunities. I did the obligatory pose while petting Fala. (click pic for larger image)
I was definitely the Country Mouse. I didn't even wear my own shoes or carry my own handbag around the city. We made sushi one night, made Thai noodles another, went out for fresh guacamole made table-side, went out for Greek tapas, and drank wine with bread and cheese (lemon Stilton was the ultimate) every night before dinner.

Lovely. Great pic of the memorial reflected in the pool of water. Next time you will have to visit a little later, catch the cherry blossoms. Did you see the President while you were whirling around?

Some day I'll get to go around DC. I won't be whirling, though. Post more pictures, please. Matka
