A pretty slow day for us. We got a late start at Richie and Judy's.
After playing with Juliana for a bit and helping Judy where we could
we headed into DC. Checked in to the hotel, realized we were tired and
so grabbed a nap before joining up with the rest of the King's Academy
group. We met up with them at the Union Station food court. Dinner,
window shopping, then back to the hotel (Embassy Suites, Alexandria).
I knew I was back in the saddle when the whole ride back in the bus
was loud off-key singing, including Barney songs.
The blessing was that we are running earlier than stated in the
itinerary. Instead of a 11:15 PM lights out the kids are already in
their rooms (9:35 PM now) and lights out will be 10 PM. Good thing,
too, because we board the buses for a full day starting at 7:45 AM! On
tap are Arlington National Cemetery and Mount Vernon. I see that Mount
Vernon has added an authentic distillery to their campus, but I don't
think we'll be going there.
Oh, and the cherry blossoms are to hit their peak on Sunday! Hope we
can at least drive around the Tidal Basin.
