Joanna's Travels
I made it!! Staying with Fran at her and Duncan's lovely house in West Falls Church.
Having a lovely time... I've been to lots of museums (Spy, Air & Space, Natural History and American History and Arlington Cemetery) and we've seen lots of monuments (Capitol Building, Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial)!! Washington is really cool - i like it a lot - feels safe and friendly. Everything (all the buildings and open space) is MASSIVE!!! The White House is smaller than you think, but only cos everything else is so big!! Its been really hot; its been a little muggy and really humid though at the same time - so even though everytime you step outside its really really warm, there's no real bright sunshine. Everywhere inside is airconditioned though - even the metro trains, so its really nice to get inside!
When we saw the monuments today, it was so hot Fran and I just wanted to jump into the reflecting pools to cool down (we didnt though!!)!
Off to New York on Sunday 16th July - how exciting!!! The 'real' travelling doesnt start until i fly to LA and go to the Cook Islands though... eeek!!!!
