My Washington DC Trip "The Start"

Over the 24th of July Weekend I decided to go to DC for a quick trip and visit some friends. What could I say payed time off makes for a win win situation with vacations.

Best part of the vacation: (Aside from being in DC its self)
- It was my trip, I got to decide what to do, I know a little selfish sounding. But it was nice.
- Visiting Maggie
- Visiting and spending the day with Annette meaning I got to meet Cambrie for the first time ever.

So here is the start of the vacation. I flew out, on Delta airlines, on Wednesday July 23rd and 8:55 pm. Yep I chose to go on an overnight flight with two lay overs. Man was I crazy.


The first leg of my flight was from Utah to Las Vegas. Did you know that there are slot machines right there in the airport. I had no clue. I guess I shouldnt have been surprised.


The second leg of my flight was from Vegas to Atlanta, the overnight portion. Lesson learned sleeping pills do not work and neither does the kid next to you constantly flopping over onto your seat. Well at least someone slept. Though I did sleep a little. The third and final leg of my flight was from Atlanta to DC. I for sure slept on this one. I remember waking up half way into the flight and said though "How are we in the air we never took off." But I did finally make it to DC. What is the worst part of an over night flight, be prepared to laugh, I always seemed to sleep when they where passing out the drinks, or I was half way asleep and did not want to open my eyes when the asked. Dang it all.

So the journey begins, (be prepared this will take multiple posts) on the metro of course. Oh yea I did sleep some cause I was not tired at all that day, well until around nine at night. Not bad if I do say so.
