One piece!

I'm back from Washington and (as the subject line indicates) in one piece! Very exciting.
It was odd to be on a field trippish thing in college. The last time I went on an excursion with a large group of people was high school, when they still kind of herded you around like sheep. This time, not so much. Our professor guide person ended up letting three quarters of the group get on the wrong Metro Line at the airport, which made for an adventurous couple stops where we all tried to figure out where the Hell we were and how, exactly, we were to get to the Holocaust Museum. We made it in the end arrived a whopping hour and a half before the museum opened, which we spent standing against the wall of the museum in the rain. Random security guy kept walking by us screaming at us to stay in single file or he would (and I quote)"be your worst nightmare if you don't!" It was kind of bizarre. Because rarely, if ever, would I describe my worst nightmare to be an over zealous museum security guy.
Anyhoot, the museum was good, as was lunch, and the rest of the day. My legs and feet were very, very tired, though, due to all the walking and the fact that I had given them a whopping workout last night with the hike thing. I think my muscles are in shock.
Anyway, I fear I'm going to keel over dead asleep right here at the keyboard, so I'll end this journal entry now.
