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!
