Description:
We got to the District of Columbia around one in the afternoon. Again I chose to drive right through the city. I ended up on New York Ave. Traffic was beastly. It took me an hour to cross the city. Still I enjoyed it. When we were near the white house I woke Vigo up. He had been napping all this time. He barely looked at the place. I tried to get him to look out at the Washington Monument as well but he preferred his sleep. We arrived at the hotel in Arlington a mere twenty minutes before my parents. Our dog Sam would have to stay on the car because they didn’t allow pets. I decided right then not to spend more than one day sightseeing in DC so that Sam wouldn’t be stuck in the car too long. The hotel had an underground garage where it didn’t get too warm. Sam even seemed to enjoy the safety of the car. We humans went to a chain restaurant in the Ballston neighborhood of Arlington. Then we returned to the hotel room. I took Sam for a nice long walk and then practically fell asleep for the night around seven. Vigo engaged in his favorite hotel activity: watching tv, which he doesn’t get to do at home. My parents were as tired as I was and no one was in the mood to hunt down some excitement across the Potomac. We decided to leave that for the next day.
