Sunday, May 24th - I'm in Washington!!!!

wow!

wow! 

wow!

wow!

All I could keep saying as I walked around was wow!! 

The drive in from Richmond was easy - in part because I found C-SPAN on the radio and they rebroadcast all the Sunday morning political TV shows - so I drove in with Meet the Press and Fox .... so appropriate!

About 30 minutes outside of DC I just got really, really excited - couldn't believe I was here!  So I had a big smile on my face as I tried navigating infamous DC traffic and road blocks to make it to my hotel - I had really lucked out with Hotwire and was staying at the Hilton 2 blocks from the White House for really, really cheap!

So after 5 minutes in my room, I was off exploring the mall and just in awe.  The monuments are unbelievably incredible with the most amazing energy about them ... ah, I am so, so happy and excited to be here!!!!
