Mellow Saturday morning

Phew! What a crazy few days.

Friday was especially long and hectic. We had a 9am flight out of National Airport but spent the night in Fredericksburg (about an hour south of the airport). We got a ride to the VRE (Virginia Railway Express) commuter rail station (I looove the train) and hopped the 6:15. We arrived at the Metro station at the end of the Blue line (Springfield) at 7:05 and hopped a train to the airport. The Metro farecards are pretty cool right now. They're all set for the inauguration:





Our flight left at 9am. We got home around noon. It is a 3.75 hour flight but with the gain of two hours for the time change it comes out that way. We ate lunch and then slept until 4pm.

I had a "girls night out" planned with tickets to a show and dinner reservations and the whole deal. Me and two other ladies (Kara and Trisha) ate a fabulous dinner at the 9th Door - a great tapas place. We then went to "Girls Only" and had two bottles of champagne!! Needless to say, I'm feeling a tad groggy this morning. I did make it to yoga with the help of extra strength Tylenol.

Anyway, I feel like the new year is starting all over again.
