Washington DC + Baltimore Maryland Weekend
Saturday:
Went to Washington DC to go to our White House tour. Yes, we went inside. =) It was a short tour as we are allowed to tour the first floor only. We saw the Library, Vermeil Room, East Room, Green Room, Blue Room (I'm guessing that above this room is the Oval Office since the room was oval-shaped), Red Room, State Dining Room, Entrance and Cross Halls. I personally love the Red Room, probably because of its color. Hehehe. Although, I saw this stunning painting of Jackie O. in the Vermeil Room... she really is gorgeous. There were guards in each room and most of them were available for questions. They basically know everything about the room they are guarding. Ask them anything and they have an answer. Questions about the painting, furniture, displays, etc.... Too bad cameras were not allowed. From what we've heard it is only allowed during the Christmas season when the whole White House is filled with Christmas decors. I wonder how it looks like...
After our quick tour, we decided to tour the rest of Washington DC as well. We walked and walked and walked to see the Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial. Before the day ended, we were all exhausted from walking and the heat! The trip was fun, nonetheless. =)
Picture! Picture!
Sunday:
Good Morning Baltimore!!!!
We were singing that line (from the movie Hairspray) repeatedly since we were in Baltimore Maryland! The streets there were picturesque and tourists were everywhere. There were 'parked' ships and even a submarine along the Chesapeake bay. Yet another tiring but definitely fun day. We walked around the bay area and took a lot of pictures!
Pictures to be uploaded soon!
Two Days --- Two State/Municipality

My Personality Type
Groundbreaking Thinker (GT)
(Just visiting? Take the free personality test and determine your iPersonic type!)
Groundbreaking Thinker (GT)
Groundbreaking Thinkers are charming, enthusiastic persons. They really bubble over with energy and like to take centre stage. They love variety both professionally and privately. Groundbreaking Thinkers tackle changes consistently with their optimism and firm belief in their own abilities; they are always on the look-out for improvement possibilities. Their excellent communication skills are of great advantage to them here. They approach the world with curiosity and openness and master new situations with a great deal of talent for improvising and with resourcefulness. Their spare time is taken up with a large number of hobbies; most Groundbreaking Thinkers like to travel in order to gather as many different impressions as possible. This personality type is unbeatable at discovering new possibilities.
In their work, Groundbreaking Thinkers highly rate challenges and diversified tasks. They cannot stand routine and too detailed work. They love to astound others with bold ideas for an original, new project and then leave it up to the others to implement them. Hierarchies, rules and regulations arouse their opposition and they love outsmarting the system. It is vital to them that they enjoy their work; if this is the case, they quickly become pure workaholics. Their creativity best takes effect when they work independently; but they are very good at motivating others and infecting them with their optimistic nature. Conceptual or advisory activities appeal especially to Groundbreaking Thinkers. It can happen that some people feel somewhat duped by their flexible, spontaneous nature.
Their sociability and enterprise ensure that Groundbreaking Thinkers always have a large circle of friends and acquaintances in which activity plays an important role. As they are mostly in a good mood, they are popular and very welcome guests. Grumbling and peevishness are unknown to them. However, they do tend to be a little erratic and unstable when it comes to obligations and this makes them appear to be unreliable to some. Groundbreaking Thinkers are very critical and demanding when it comes to picking a partner because they look for the ideal relationship and have a very concrete picture of this ideal relationship. Mutual aims in life are very important to them. They do not like compromising and would rather remain alone. For the partner, it is often a challenge to have a long-term relationship with a Groundbreaking Thinker. Groundbreaking Thinkers need a lot of space and diversity or otherwise they become bored and feel cramped. Types who are rather more traditionalistic often have problems with the willingness of Groundbreaking Thinkers to take risks and their often crazy, spontaneous actions. However, if one can summon up sufficient flexibility and tolerance for them, one will never be bored in their presence and will always have a loyal and faithful partner.
Adjectives which describe your type
