Late Night Photo Escapade

Finally, a parking spot!

Ghis and I snuck out at 10:30pm last night and drove to Washington DC to take pictures of the lit buildings. We started with the White House and while I was trying to focus, they shut all the lights off. Also, there was nowhere to park or even stop near a lot of the monuments.

I did spot a cupcake place but it had just closed at 11pm. We did get a few nice shots though.

We’ve both discovered that our parents have their own histories in these parts. My parents took their honeymoon at Virginia Beach. Ghis’s parents visited Washington DC and got kicked out trying to climb the White House stairs or something. Maybe Ghis can correct me on this!
