DC trip


We don't go into DC nearly enough. It's about an hour trip and can get crowded but those are pretty lame excuses to keep us from the amazing stuff to see down there.

I took Gareth and Rosemary to the Hirshhorn museum where they and some of the French-speaking friends were led around by a French-speaking tour guide.

Rosie did well paying close attention and asking so many questions that the guide eventually had to ask, "Does anyone else have a question?"


Gareth was largely bored but liked a few of the sculptures. I was just happy he didn't walk out of the tour.

Personally I don't get much out of the Hirshhorn and can't believe people go in here with so many other good things to see nearby. Maybe if you were stuck on a desert island and the only structure to take shelter in was the Hirshhorn (okay, I have to admit... it's a very cool building), then I could see wandering through and looking at the art, at least until it stopped raining.
