9th May
We started our trip to Washington today. We arrived in the afternoon and had dinner at an Italian restaurant then we went on a four hour walking / bus tour around Washington. Good to see but way too long. Then we went to a pub in town for a huge night out.
10th May
Today I went to the newseum which had all the relevant news stories of the world, a Berlin Wall exhibit, 9/11 exhibit & an awesome FBI one. After that it was raining so I came back to the hotel to nap off my hangover. They had a stupid k kourt thing at night where they accuse you of doing things on contiki and you had to say guilty etc but I chose not to go. I went down the street with Sarah and Michelle for some quiet drinks and nibbles.

Today was our second free day in Washington and we went to the White House, the war memorials & the Lincoln memorial with the reflecting pool. Then we caught the metro to the zoo and saw baby panda & baby lions.
We walked about 10kms plus today we napped in the arvo and then had an included dinner of chicken Marsala & cheesecake. We all went to the restaurant next door for farewell drinks. Had a great time but glad to be finishing up, some people continue to surprise you right til the end.
