That's it, we've officially started the road trip. Will's scaring the crap out of me by insisting on driving in a made up lane somewhere between the slow lane and the hard shoulder, but at least we're moving. We've left Manhattan and New Jersey and going through Baltimore, hopefully with us ending at D.C with enough time to go and explore!
We'd heard of reports of vast amounts of snow in Washington and the road conditions were supposedly difficult, but it was only to be a quick visit and to just drive onwards and miss it out would of been a shame.
...The cold though...we arrived as it was getting dark, and i've never been that cold in my life. I'm a complete sucker for site seeing but this was unbearable. We did manage to see the majority of the mall. We got to the capital building, Washington monument, Lincoln's memorial (which is much cooler than i anticipated, although we weren't allow upstairs due to ice), we also did the white house and well that's about it. Even with the newly acquired hat, gloves and scarf i had to bail and get back to warmth.....and bed.
