... way. I hate being a follower, but I have no choice right now. At least Michael seems to know where he's going. We pass a white guy and two black women hugging and I overhear the man tell the women that he only has two passes to the blue section; his family is some place else and he wants to be with them so he's giving the passes to the ladies. They are clearly overjoyed. That scene warms my heart. That's what this is all about.   After ...

After the round of golf and lunch, I walked to the National Mall. On my route was the Holocaust Museum, which I have been planning to visit. However, today was too beautiful of a day to partake in such a somber experience. I remember when I visited the Dachau concentration camp, that the weather was cloudy and drizzling. I felt it was such an appropriate environment for the sites I was ...

... two little troopers (our three year old son, Joshua and our two year old daughter, Anna) some dinner, a bath and then bed. It was also time for us to work out our plan of attack for the next day and then get some rest too.

... rock and roll through the display, and our bleeding ears were well worth the price of admission. Probably the highlight of it all though was watching the mexican wave of screaming children ripple through the crowd as the wall of noise hit us each time the sound from planes hit us.....sick, but highly amusing ;) It's set a high bar for other cities to reach - we're into Washington DC tomorrow.....lunch with the President?

... t a taxi, as he had no ID displayed, and he got hopelessly lost trying to get us to our hotel, the Ramada Plaza, which was supposed to be at the airport! It was actually quite a way from the terminal, the address being JFK Airport, JAMAICA, NY(!) but we did get there eventually. The kids immediately tuned into one of the many live courtroom dramas they were to watch on TV in the US, while we had a shower and hit the hay.

... pals took me to Dolly Dimples, a pizza restaurant that we've wanted to go to for months, for my birthday dinner. It was absolutely delicious, and they even ordered a to-die-for chocolate caramel brownie for dessert. And if that wasn't enough, we were invited by Ellen Grønland (my 23-year-old Trysil relative who lives in Oslo) to a vorspiel (directly translated: foreplay, meaning to drink before going out on the town) at her friend Crystal's apartment in Oslo. We hadn't been invited ...

... cute flats as well. When we got to Forever, I was quickly overwhelmed by its size - 3 floor packed full of cheap, trendy clothes. 1.5 hours later with Brian waiting outside the first 1 hour and standing inside the next 30 minutes, I emerged victorious with my loot of new fall clothes. By then, it was 11:30am and we needed to quickly head down to what was our one and only "touristy" museum - The Ground Zero Museum Workshop. This musuem was one subway stop from were we were ...

... same cooling system and use heavy water in them to cool the core. The Candu can be refueled while it is running whereas the others have to have the reactor shut down to refuel. The Candu reactors use large bodies of water to assist in the cooling whereas other systems use evaporators to cool the core." When he tried to find more about American reactors, all the web sites had been shut down due to the terrorist attacks. Hopefully we will not be violating national security ...

... and other stones, western culture, reptiles and insects. Then we saw the Earth and its planets, space, astronaut stuff, spacecrafts, WWI and WWII fighter planes, and facts about flying at the National Air & Space Museum. Then we got ice cream at the park and took more pictures in front of the Capital. Then we went back to the caravan where I am writing now. Our next stop is to drive to Georgetown University so Allison can ...
