For the second, we stayed with family friends in a farm house outside town.

Photos of Washington DC: Day 1

Morning and happy MLK day. We just woke up. How about a day 1 on DC photo post to warm up? All of my photos are up on Flickr in the set, Washington DC Day 1.

We left Greebelt Station at 3 pm or so. Although there were long lines to get a metro ticket, we only had to wait about 15 minutes and the station wasn’t too busy. Not to busy yet, that is.

Dancing to Jazz

Dancing to Jazz

We (Emon, Francisco, and I) got off the train at The National Archives. This was the first thing I saw: a couple dancing to jazz music. It’s nothing spectacular but cute, such was the mood that day.

Everyone was walking back from the concert at the Lincoln Memorial. The traffic and crowds were both dense. Button sales spiked.

We walked further into the city.

Great Expectations.

Cold water. My face. I must wake up, blog about religion, and push onward.  Before I go, we’re watching the local FOX News right now. They’re taking pictures and blogging on the show. It’s like watching an infomercial for social media. Terrible.
