Friday 1 October left Manchester
on AA95 to Boston, UA088 Boston to Washington DC. Arrived safely
but whichout luggage which arrived on next flight.
Saturday 2 October First stop -
shopping mall to re-stock Levis. Diner for breakfast and then
major purchase - Nikon D70. The first attempts are the pics on
this page.
Sunday 3 October Our friends took
us to a Renaissance Fair which consists of mainly Americans dressing up
in medieval costume (medieval to some US folk covers any era from 11th
to 18th Century !) However, some very interesting outfits; ladies
in bodices, men in tights and goths. So much food too.
Obviously every type of sustenance in those days came "on a
stick".
Monday 4 October Our last
day/evening in Washington. First thing we did today was have
breakfast with Bill. A very interesting man - 80 years old and ex
FAA. Over-easy eggs and ham for me. On to the White House
and Smithsonian Museum of
American History. Dinner at The Cheesecake Factory and an early
night. Tomorrow we leave for Barbados, via Boston & Miami.
