Hampton VA and Washington DC







What great fun we had in Hampton VA visiting Angela and her family. We stayed a few days while Dennis, Kevin and Drew tiled their backsplash in the kitchen and the floor in the utility. I should have gotten pictures of their handiwork to display!! We had a great visit and got to go eat at Harpoon Larry's - a great seafood place ( really it is a dive but great food!).

While we were there, the guy that
demos the F22 planes at the air shows
was practici
ng at Langley and
we got to go out
on the flight line and watch him practice for the Paris Air show coming up. It was a highlight of our trip!







After our visit in Hampton, we
boarded the Amtrak train to DC. That was fun and and we arrived at Union Station in DC and had lunch there before heading to our hotel that was just a short 2 block walk from the Nation's Capitol! We could see it from the front door of our hotel. It was a great location for seeing all the sights.









We got pretty good at the metro also! Drew and I visited about as many sights as we could pack into our sho
rt stay while Dennis was in meetings for the National Association of Realtors. Once back home, we were ready for Megan to have her baby in Austin so we could head down there but as you can see, we are still waiting for the call! More pictures in next post!
