Well, my moblogging dreams have been dashed. Blogger is rejecting emails sent from my phone and the rates for Internet usage in the hotel are outrageous. And I haven't found a cyber cafe yet. So this might be my only post from DC and, since there's no card reader here, it won't include photos, of which I have many.
DC is way cool. Very pretty and very clean city. Everyone here seems to fall into two categories: visitors who are happy to be on vacation seeing the sites, or locals who are happy to see the visitors seeing the sights. It's a shame I've seen three other national capitols before I saw my own!
Some highlights:
-Took communion at the National Cathedral this morning.
-Visited the big sites on the National Mall - Capitol, Washington, Jefferson, and Lincoln Monuments, Vietnam and Korea Memorials. Awe-inspiring stuff. I think Lincoln is my fav.
-Saw the Declaration of Independence and Constitution. The actual original documents. Did you know a 26-year-old signed the Declaration?
-Stood in the spot where Dr. King gave his I Have a Dream speech.
There's more but I've got to quit soon. This is costing me $.79/minute.
Game 5 tonight. I'm nervous.
