... road with cars, and we saw a number of horse powered carts or plows working the fields. Looks like a tough life to me. Again, more shopping and another shipment home. I'm sure by now Jeff and Sarah's house has a UPS sign in the window.

We're in DC now.....getting ready to tour some museums since the weather changed to rain again. Chat later.....and.......GO DUCKS.

If all this wasn't enough, when we arrived at our Quito hotel, my wife and I were surprised and touched to find that Ms. Sayago had left an anniversary present with our local guide for us (this trip coincided with our 25th wedding anniversary).

It truly was the vacation of a lifetime!

We met at Samson Hall, soon to be the old base of Forensic Science Department as they are shortly to be moving to a new site that will allow the programme to take more students. Although the cost of a GWU Masters in Forensics is quite ...

... a kid to remember it some 10 years later proves that it's a visit to remember. But they do hit you with the gift shop at the end, which was full of stuffed animals that you don't find at your local Toys R Us (I bought a Raccoon that I still have). Thinking about it, I realize that many of my road trip memories have revolved around gift shops...not that it's a bad thing though, because it's given me a reference point for the important things ...

... for and hour and so and then hit Harris Teater because I had no food for lunch Tuesday. After we were pretty beat so we headed back to my apartment to chill for a few hours before meeting up with Megan and Rob for dinner. Around 7 we met Megan and Rob on King street and went to a pub for dinner. We all got the fish and chips except Rob, they were so yummy. The chips they serve it with were really potatoes :) :) We walked down the rest of King Street so the guys could see the Potomac ...

... had drie in lakleer gehulde kameraden nodig om het te begrijpen: we waren terecht gekomen op de Washingtonse versie van de Gay Parade: Capitol Pride! Hoewel de sfeer hier opperbest was, behoorden we duidelijk niet tot de doelgroep en hebben we, na het optreden en wat verhelderende informatie over homo- en transseksuele mormonen (van een man met een t-shirt met daarop: 'I like mormon boys') gauw de benen genomen.

... there is a new cast of dancers changing over for the shows which means a lot of extra rehearsals and tech-runs.

... that it is because it is the "birth right" of every jewish person to visit their homeland. Pretty sweet.

Of course, there were a few drawbacks. Going with Birthright means going on a guided tour of Israel, with a tourbus of 40 other young Americans - not exactly my ideal way of traveling or getting to know a country and culture. And the Birthright program is downright ...

... of the church turned charter elementary school. Inside the cafeteria, the organizers had set up dozens of card tables. Gift bags were strewn all over the tables along the perimeter of the room - these were part of the great raffle in which we could buy a bunch of tickets and then put them in the appropriate gift bag next to, say, a bike or a waffle iron in hopes we would win in the drawing. The tables in the ...
