our dnc adventure

We braved the iffy weather and secret service to head uptown this afternoon and see what we could see. Unfortunately, we didn't get too far.


We promised the kids an adventure and we didn't disappoint. By the time we made it to 8th and McDowell Sts heavy downpours forced us under the porch of a nearby townhouse while we waited out the rain.


We waited and waited. After a half hour, we decided we'd had enough.




Emi was disappointed not to get to see Mr. Obama, but tacos from one of our favorite old haunts and the promise of a chocolate croissant from Amelie's cheered us all up.




Yes we can!

why aren't these pics showing up for me? So glad yall tried nonetheless. I wanted to brew down there too but Bruce was less than not interested. We did, however, see one of the white house planes take off from the airport. pretty cool.
