Up early, off to the airport to pick up my hubby and the boys friend, Mr16. The flight was relatively on time and we got their baggage and took the shuttle back to the room. Everyone was tired, so we napped a bit and got everyone showered and ready to go. We had plans to go to the Marine Corp parade in the evening and it is supposed to be really amazing to see. Unfortunately the concierge at the hotel gave us bad directions and we ended up in Chinatown instead! By the time we figured out that we were in the wrong place and how to get where we were supposed to be, it was too late to go back to the Marine parade grounds. Instead we went to the International Spy museum and walked around and saw the outside of Ford’s Theater where Lincoln was shot. We are going back later to see the inside. *smiles* riding the Metro is fun, although a bit intimidating at first. You can really tell the difference between the locals and the tourists. Today is hubby’s birthday, but we decided to celebrate tomorrow when everyone is well rested. Of course we didn’t help that along much, we stayed out too late and nobody slept really well.
