More walking and site seeing and shopping…..but at a more leisurely pace
The Washington mall, White House, Pentagon Mall (shopping), beer , first outdoor ice rink, watched some of the Sunday afternoon American football game taking place at Wembley in London, Pentagon 9/11 Memorial and out to my Marillion mate Ricks for dinner. Home cooked Chicken and mac ‘n cheese.
He was most impressed I was at the Six of the Best gig, I was impressed I got a bootleg recording! Cheers Rick.
During the day we…
had a long chat, standing in the middle of the Concert for Valour gig venue, to a security guard about Washington and the gig. His advice was be somewhere else as 800,000 – 1,000,000 were due to arrive.
and the Pentagon Memorial is very moving. The seats for each victim are in rows for birth year, youngest 3 oldest around 70. Their names are engraved in the open end of the seat. The direction of the seat also has significance and is very moving! We got there as the sun was setting so the Autumn leaves cast a nice colouring. Wish we had seen at night!
