Live From Washington D.C.
Mar 12, 2003 · 2 minute readNTL’s email server seems to be as reliable as ever, so apologies if you’ve sent me any mail in the past few days. I’ll probably be able to read it on Sunday.
So far:
- The! White! House!
- Time taken on meticulous plans: at least two hours. How long these plans lasted: 5 minutes.
- Seem to have spent the past two days seeped in death; Korea and Vietnam Memorials, the Smithsonian exhibit about Japanese-American Internment, and today I went to Arlington Cemetery.
- Tomorrow: Capitol Hill, the Supreme Court, and the Library of Congress! And then I run out of ideas…
I haven’t been paying too much attention to the news recently (the TV in the hotel can only get fuzzy pictures from CBS, ABC, NBC and Fox stations); but I did see the front of the New York Times today. Nice of Mr. Rumsfield to lend a helping hand. Oh yes, I went to the Pentagon today as well. I took a picture, then saw the huge “PHOTOS PROHIBITED” sign. So I got back on the Metro before the scary MPs took me away.
The Metro is nice. Clean, fast, and mostly on-time.
