I went out to breakfast with my mom in the morning, and then flew into Washington-Reagan yesterday afternoon. The pattern was impressive -- we reached pattern altitude right next to the Lincoln Memorial, then flew along the reflecting pool and the Washington Monument, looking up the street to the Capital building. Beth and her sister Laura picked me up (and brought her PUPPIES!) and we drove back to her house.
In the evening, we ordered in pizza and played Loaded Questions for Beth's mom's birthday. Josh came over, as did Laura's boyfriend Steve. Beth's parents were both there, as was her son-to-be-adopted little brother Chris. It was fun!
Today, I think we're going to go down to the National Mall, and maybe the International Spy Museum.
