On the road again...

Washington, District of Columbia, United States
Another Ammon family spring break fly-drive-see-America trip has begun.

Today was flying day . Spokane to Minneapolis and then on to Washington DC. Being spring break we saw many friends and acquaintances at the airport. Many were on the same flight to Minneapolis before catching flights for their vacation destinations. The Sweatmans were headed to the tropical beaches of Turks and Caicos, the Bax family was headed to the crowded streets of NYC, and the Wards were going to the windy city, Chicago. We start in DC and drive to Boston via West Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Vermont and New Hampshire.

We arrived late into DC, collected our luggage, and waited and waited for the rental car shuttle. After a 20 minute wait it arrived and transported us to the rental lot. There was literally ONE car available on the lot, and it was a minivan - our minivan. Several people were carless and not happy. Apparently there are a lot of people on spring break vacations in DC. We drove through light rain to our DC hotel, which is also sold out.

Finally we are in our room, all with beds. Time to rest up, the adventure continues tomorrow.
