As Told By My iPhone May 18, 2011
Posted by Emily in : Trips , trackbackI came across some pics on my phone that share some of the fun things I experienced on my trip to DC. I must share some of these nuggets! This is what my iPhone would tell you about my trip:
My poor, poor feet. Walking 10 miles in flip flops is not the best idea . . .
This is a million dollar violin from the 1700′s. I was sort of star struck when I saw it . . . kind of like I just met a celebrity.
This is the hat Abraham Lincoln wore the night he was assassinated.
This is the hope diamond which is worth a bajillion dollars. It says it belongs to the “American People” which got me thinking . . . if I were to take it . . . would it really be a crime? I mean, 1/312 million belongs to me!
This is the United Stated Capital Building with an extremely yellow color cast to it. (What the heck was my phone thinking? Doesn’t it know I expect perfect accuracy out of my cameras!)
And here it is again.

Double self portraits!
The Library of Congress
The metro which was our preferred transportation everyday.
Truffle’s that look a lot like super expensive dog poop. Did you read the sign? $1,000 a pound!? What the heck? Do they think Donald Trunp shops at this grocery store?!
Oh my favorite sister!
Fabulous trip.
Yep. It was F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S.
Jenn moves back to southern California this summer, and we already have plans to visit her and her family after they get settled back into their house.
Can we say: Disneyland and the beach here we come! :)

It looks so fun! And yeah, flip flops are horrible for the feet.
Man, you had a much better DC trip than I did the next week. That violin wasn’t in its case because it was out for a performance with a symphony.
Grr.
I do love Lincoln’s hat, though. I have a similar picture and it’s one of my favorites.
So glad you had such a great trip !! We are going to get up there one day !!
Also I must say “you look so good ” !!! You have got to share your beauty secrets !!!
I showed Maddie Hannah’s earrings thinking I could convince her to do it, nope, she is just not ready !! Too funny !
I hear you about the flip flops. I haven’t exercised much lately, but today I went for a 2 mile walk in my Vibrams, and then walked to and from Josh’s school (about 1.5 miles) in very flat, very thin sandals. My feet are quite sore right now.
