Vacation, Part 2











Wanted to be sure to post pics from the second half of our vacation. We spent it in the Foggy Bottom area of Washington DC. Were so happy that we were able to meet up with two college friends of mine, Andre and Al(ice) and their daughter Zoe on Sunday night after we arrived in DC. We had many a good chuckle reminiscing and I don't think Zoe will be going to SCSU. She asked, while laughing pretty hard, "Didn't we have any normal friends in college?" Uhm, no, but we do have a lot of good stories. They gave Libby a Baltimore Oriole's T-shirt and a stuffed Maryland crab, now named Rosie. She loves them both, and wears her tee to bed, when it is not in the wash.

Went to the National Zoo the first day. Let's just say it was a disaster and we would have been better off watching the "little, little ants" in front of our hotel. Libby was a total trooper Tuesday morning at the Smithsonian museums, and check the earlier entry for her observations. We all loved walking through Georgetown and having dinner near the river. Loved DC and had a lot more fun there with Libby than expected. We were saddened by the crash of the metro train, but used it the next day without incident. It is very easy to use to get around.

All and all, a wonderful trip from start to finish with a toddler who fell asleep before take-off and did not wake until after landing-whew!
