We went to an orioles baseball game...
We went to Ocean City to the beach, it was just a nice clean pretty beach...which makes for a nice day--we played out in the waves--which the water was really warm--threw a ball around..and we thought we found a jelly fish...
A little disclaimer to the beach: I came out here like 7 years ago for a student council covention in DC--and we went to Virginia Beach....and I remember i LOVED the salt water taffy because it was fresh and delicious, so when we showed up to the beach, I told Melanie that we HAD to get some because it's the best ever...so we go into the first store and i'ts about $8 a pound (box) but it was buy three get one free--we just thought it was a steal of a deal, so we spent like $25...a couple hours later we were going through some of the stores and found more taffy for...99 cents a box! I was SO upset...what a horrible impulsive decision it was on my part!One thing that I've been SO excited to do out here is go "crab picking" is what they like to call it out here--It was probably one of the best experiences I've had eating before :) for those of you have never eaten fresh crab...they put paper over the table and just throw the crab on it--give you a little hammer and knife--and you go to town...we were there for like 3 hours because it took so long picking all the meat out...but it was SO fun and so delicious!
Adam and David don't like sea food for some reason...so they enjoyed some nice ribs...this is both of us really excited to eat, I had to add a picture of Adam here because this is the only thing that he was able to do with us...he had to work the whole week :(
We spent about 4 days in DC going to Arlington cemetery, the capitol, lincoln memorial, vietnam cemetery, union station, ford's theater, china town, when all the way to the top of the Washington monument (555 feet) and more... We took a tour bus all around DC which was really nice..it definately saved our legs and feet a little bit of aching...and it was nice because they would give facts and stories of the different places and events--
For these two lovely pictures we were waiting for our tour bus so we decided to do a couple handstand contests and cartwheels...I'd like to think that I'm not to old yet...that I could still do them...but clearly i'm not--I honestly couldn't do either...see below for details
Vietnam Cemetery Wall
A few of my favorite things, the American flag, DC, and David
It was so much fun having them out here! It was a sad day when they left--but I'm so glad that they decided to come out and visit us!
