Friday, 6/24/16, we set out in our Saturn Vue to view the wonders our journey would hold. As usual, with any good road trip, there were bumps. Our route, that had been planned months before, was no longer accessible as it would take us through West Virginia. I want to pause here for a moment and say a prayer for all those in WV that are affected by the flooding and devastation. The scenes are truly horrific. With our course changed, we headed toward PA. Of course, we also have to forget something and for me it was a rain jacket. I have a beautiful rain jacket at home, in the closet, waiting to be taken on this trip. Oh well! Amazon ships everywhere and right from my phone! Now, back on track and rain jacket crisis averted. I hope that by purchasing the aforementioned rain jacket, this will be an insurance policy against the forcasted rainy days in the coming week. The remainder of our travel day was thankfully uneventful. We arrived safely to our hotel in DC. We decided to take a walk to shake off the sitting all day feelings. As we walked, this wonderful smell met our noses and we followed it right into a tiny pizza place called "We the Pizza." So, we had a slice and a sasparilla and boy was it good. Now I will be thinking about that pizza all week long. It was a great day and we are so happy to have arrived safely.
