Washington, DC

We are now in DC. We took a short 2 hour tour of the city this afternoon. It was great. We went on one of those open-top buses. When we came back to our hotel we had to take a city bus. It came a downpour before we got back. We ended having to run two blocks in the pouring rain with no umbrella. The streets were flooded in some places and we got absolutely soaked...all the way to our skin. It was s funny and kind of fun for me, but the kids didn't like it, at least Mary Elizabeth. Christopher was laughing. We are going back in the morning to actually get to see the sights up close, then on to NC to get Granny and then home. We should be back Saturday. See you guys Sunday.
