Or is it 'Capitol'??? I'll never remember.
Oh well, Max and I are here in Washington, DC for my block leave. We are having a fabulous time. Yesterday I arrived at the airport around 11am. I found out earlier that morning that he missed his plane because he was 5 minutes late to the boarding time. Boo! Oh well, he was placed on standby and made it here later that afternoon. I, however, got the rental car and went shopping! I had way too much fun! I even got a pedicure. :D
When Max showed up, I picked him up from the airport and we came back to our hotel-which by the way is amazing!!! It is probably the nicest hotel I've ever stayed at. I really like the bathroom (don't make fun of me!). For dinner, we found a pretty cool Thai restaurant so that I could have Pad Thai (my favorite dish). We also tried these little tofu triangles that were super good.
We went out to breakfast this morning at a little bistro-type restaurant down the street. It was good minus the coffee grounds in my coffee. :( We spent the bulk of the day downtown on the Mall looking at the various monuments and memorials. I was really moved by the Vietnam memorial and the Women's Vietnam memorial. I got pretty choked up at the number of soldiers that were lost. It made my job in Iraq feel more significant. :)
We are going to the Melting Pot for dinner tonight--I can't wait!!! I love that place. Then we're going to party it up in Georgetown. Yay!
I will write more later--maybe. Oh!!! and 340 days and counting!!!
