Yes, I am indeed back. I had a brilliant time in DC and have lots to tell about shopping, sightseeing and (eating and) drinking.
However, I am also suffering a little. I have the loveliest husband who happily took on the whole household routine for a week, while also trying to run his business and earn enough money for us all. Unfortunately this is the same husband who thought that the best cure for my jet-lag would be to rouse the family at 9am on Sunday to drive to Kent so he and Sam could go climbing for the day. Lovely. I fell asleep in the car on the way back, I wonder why?
Also, I'd like to pass on this tip. Just because your camera's memory card says you can take 350 photos, don't try and take 200 or so of them and then upload them to your PC. You just end up with a weird mess of photos of cherry blossom and photos of yarn and photos of your children climbing that you're pretty sure should be in chronological order but aren't, so you have to try and do it all manually, while watching time slipping away.
So, for now, I leave you with this.
More details tomorrow I promise.
It was great to meet you, and I'm so glad you found some great stuff to bring back! Come back anytime.
