Independence Day

For the Fourth of July I went downtown with Ellin (she works downtown and has a parking pass) to see the fireworks by the Washington Monument. I was warned not to take the Metro, and thank goodness I went with Ellin and stayed away from the Metro. As soon as the fireworks ended, the zillion people who were swarming downtown to watch the fireworks all made a beeline for the subway. It took us a while to get out of downtown, but it was way better than being underground with all those people.

Here are a few shots I took.
