White House!!!


For the July 4Th long weekend, we went to DC. On our way we had a night stay at DH's cousin's place and by the next day we went my friend's place in Virginia and on July4Th we went to DC and up til now I had a great sketch of White House in my mind, but at a closer view, to my eyes it just looked like the other buildings. We just had some snaps with the back ground of it, we are not even allowed to go and stay close to it. After visiting Capitol hill and a museum, At night we were there at a Monument to see fireworks and it took almost 1 hr for us to get out of our Parking lot and we reached home late night and the very next day we started back to our Place.

The sad thing is I was never been to our Country's Capital New Delhi, I didn't see the Red fort and Parliament yet in real. Hope I could tour North India in my next vacation.

Talking of Delhi, it reminds me of our trips to college. We used to take a train to Delhi. On one of those trips, as we approached the station, our friend pointed out to a building and said that it's the parliament. We fools almost believed it before a fellow passenger revealed the truth.. Many such incidents with him.. He would sing the Kenyan national anthem and would say that he stayed in Kenya for few years.. Though it's truth it took a while for us to believe.
