Last week's trip to DC

Saturday: fly to Dulles. We stay in Mansassas, VA at Chen and Ivy's apt.

Sunday: Luray cavern in VA. Pretty cool cave system!

Monday: I stay home with Skye while the others do something or other.

Tuesday: Visit DC: Chen or Ivy drives us to Viennna Fairfax metro station, and we take the train to L'Enfant station to national mall. see capital building, white house, and old Smithsonian museum. Skye rides a carrousel Very hot and humid. Take lots of outdoor pictures.

Wednesday: Back to DC. visit American history museum and air and space museum.

Thursday: visit First Manassas National Battlefield (First Bull Run). A very good tour -- the docent told a great story.

Friday: see Mount Vernon, G. Washington's house. Actually fairly interesting.

Saturday: Help Chen and Ivy move to Germantown, MD -- to their new condo. Got the truck at 10 am and didn't finish until 1:30 am.

Sunday. Unload the last bits from the truck in the morning. We stay home at the new place -- Skye is a little sick and needs some rest.

Monday. fly back to O'Hare. Taxi back home. It's good to be home!
