Spring Break USA trip

Quick trip to the US to see Grannie and celebrate Alex's 11th birthday.  We packed a lot in, including a Nationals game as Carrie's birthday present to Alex, his first live baseball game.  What fun and the weather was spectacular.  It was also Military appreciation Day and $1 hot dog day.

Alex had not been to the US since August 2016, and we both enjoyed "getting our USA on".  Several trips to the WaWa (Alex was eating Cheetos and drinking a Mango smoothie within one hour of landing at Dulles), lots of driving (Carrie lent me her car which was awesome), lots of frozen waffles, tacos, visiting with Frank-Eli, Chuck E Cheese, bike riding, church with Grannie, lunch with Mabel, new shoes for Alex, the car wash, riding the new Metro cars on the Red line, Passover Seder at Val's house (Val was in town from Atlanta)...so much fun.

Nationals Game
Uh, yes, that is Air Force One we saw flying over Nationals Park (what other 747 is climbing over DC coming from Maryland?), and ran into Aunt Shana on the way home at Gallery Place!

REST of the pictures
All the fun, leaving Paris, Alex and I walked to take the bus to the airport since we had a later flight, the weather was nice, and the bus is close and cheaper...we think we saw the plane of the President of France.  Church meeting with Grannie (and her friend Mabel), lunch, Five Guys, a visit to Carrie's, back to the Church for exercise on Monday morning, lunch at the Tea Room with Mabel, Passover seder at Val's, Chuck E Cheese, Mi Rancho (Alex's favorite taco restaurant), celebrating Alex's birthday before we leave, saying goodbye, back in France...and Alex styling Vincent's hair.
