Woke up to a slightly cloudy morning in DC, After a light brekkie it was off to Arlington military cemetery, pay ones respects. It turned out to be a massive hike around the place it is massive.
Went to the Tomb of the unknown soldier, watch the Guy March up and down a bit. He was immaculately dressed, and lost it when a group of visitors were chatting loudly, told them to shut up, and show some respect. Then it was back to the city for Lunch, in a British pub, Called the Elephant and Castle. Beer was good, and the food was really good fare, at a reasonable price. After lunch we bimbled up Pennsylvania Avenue, to see if that guy with the dodgy Barnet was home. Never seen so many coppers in my life. Then a bus load if US Marines made an entrance, all dressed in blues. And very smart they were to, apparently the guy with the dodgy barnet, had invited they over for a BBQ, and a few beers. Nice of him, I thought. Although They did look a little overdressed, for a piss up. Reminded me of the Mess Summer balls. Getting wrecked with your best gear on. Good times, well the parts I can remember were, at least.
