I'm back from Wasghington DC, I went to my sister's wedding it was a stressful family trip (I'm not used to travel with my parents).Sorry I don't have pics but I left my digital camera at home.I'm sending the Nikon's photo film to Clark Labs tomorrow, it means i will have my photos back in a week, sorry for that, I promise I'll post them.
After all the shopping (Potomac Mills,Tysons Corner Center,Target,TJ Maxx,Michael's, Recollections and The Fashion Centre at Pentagon City) we visited the National Gallery of Art we had a short time but it was enough to see Van Gogh's Self Portrait,Monet's
Water Lilies,Degas Ballet Dancers , Mary Cassat's Girls at the beach etc.
At the Museum Shop I bought this beautiful Sketchbook Andy Warhol Idea Book that I'm in love with.
We visited also the Smithsonian National Museum of African Art they have an exhibition of big block wooden stamps that is awesome.
We stayed at Cristal City's Hilton were we had to evacuate the building at 3:00 am because a drunk guy pulled out a box from the fire alarm system.Besides that the hotel was good and we paid only 89.00 per night plus the taxes.
Our last day there I bought myself a birthday present (my 35th bday is in october)a new SLR digital cam which I'm trying to learn how to use, a Nikon D70s, so I have a big manual to read and also I'm getting ready to start a Collaborative Journal Project which means there's gonna be "material" to post.
(Sorry for the gram errors but english is not my first language)
