DAY 10 USA 11th November 2011

Technically at home its Remembrance day and 11/11/11 on the 11th hour is something special…Although, that was some 15 hours earlier…I held my moments silence in my time zone… “Lest we forget” 11/11/11 is a special day (allegedly) I think people make too much of those days but what is the next time after 12/12/12 comes around? First of March 13? Numbers are really irrelevant and freaks just need to chill out a bit. Another glorious sunshiny day in the Capital... Good Morning DC (regrettably leaving the Morrison Clark) but that regret does not linger long especially when checking in the all superior serviced Washington Hilton But before that it was anther walk and a few more photos The Museum of Natural History and The Air & Space Museums are not to be missed…Memorial on Veterans day. The Lincoln Memorial Unfortunately, the camera battery died and after walking for 7 hours again I just wanted a rest. And a rest is indeed what I got at the Hilton…great superior service and fantastic accommodation and its not expensive for what you get. The suite included Internet, personal concierge, breakfast and even afternoon tea… Highly recommended stay for any business or someone who appreciates all life’s little luxuries. The evening started with a telephone chat with another friend, planning another European getaway and booking to go to San Francisco and hoping to catch up with Selvi and Marty. Will see how I go. Then it was off to dinner with Dana at yet another great recommendation Perry’s Adams Morgan and apparently there is a drink of Scotch and Sparkling…mmm ok… The food was delightful and the sashimi and Pork Schnitzel were amazing. The character of the evening goes to “Anthony of San Diego”…definitely a stoner who was very amuzing and probably seeing him in a dark alley wil make you turn around and run but very entertaining as he was bumming cigis all night and off everyone that walked in. The other misfit was this Asian looking bartender dude that spoke Spanish …Only in America… Very amusing and a great night of drinks, food and fun.
