Last day in DC

We had a fun final day on US territory. The girls went for a swim, in a very warm indoor pool. We took a brisk and cold walk over to the white house. We can't wait for the obamas to move in! We saw the stands being constructed for inauguration day. Too bad we were just a month early! We walked along the mall to the bureau of engraving and printing to see how money is made. We were looking for some free samples. After all, they make 700 million bills a day. It was a very interesting tour. The girls spent the afternoon shopping while marc had a meeting. We came away with a couple of new purchases, which we managed to squeeze into our overloaded suitcases. We enjoyed a final farewell meal at legal seafood before heading to Dulles for our overnight flight to London. Hope to blog from abroad. Wishing you all a happy, healthy and adventurous 2009!
Love, from the Africa bound Dollingers
