days 20 and 21

In washington, d.c.
FROM SCOTT
we spent the past two days seeing the sights in d.c. white house, congress, supreme court, fbi, irs, washington monument, lincoln and jefferson memorials, the wall, smithsonian, american indian museum, air and space museum (i wasn't really scared when olivia rolled out fighter jet simulator, again and again and again. honest), national archives, national cathedral, georgetown and more. wow. lots to see, and i think we did ok for our limited time. i think seeing everything here -- to include the magna carta, declaration of independence, constitution and bill of rights, not to mention the hope diamond -- is something olivia will remember for a long time, including taking the metro into town and back from our hotel in crystal city, where the shops are all underground. i'm just sorry to see it end. tomorrow she flies home and i'll be alone again, talking to myself and strangers in parking lots. but we had a great trip, particularly in key west and d.c. lots of wonderful memories for me as well as her.
