Today we went to the National Space Museum and the National Art Gallery. They were both really interesting, although I may be going back to both of them to see them for a little bit longer. I did get to see some Van Gogh and Monet paintings. They were amazing, and I realized that I really like Impressionism and Expressionism...
We also got to eat at the largest (and most overpriced) McDonald's. Trust me: eat your lunch before you go to the Space Museum. It isn't worth the 10 bucks you are going to spend.
Finally, we went to the Hard Rock Cafe and went to see Slumdog Millionaire. Those were both really good...expensive, but really good.
Well, you get a bonus quote this post, because I actually said something insightful today, so you get that plus a conventional dose of wisdom.
"You would think for a place founded to spread knowledge, the bookstore wouldn't be so expensive." -Me
"Anyone who conducts an argument by appealing to authority is not using his intelligence; he is just using his memory." -Leonardo DaVinci (We saw one of his paintings today; the only one in the Western Hemisphere)

Go to California tortilla in Chinatown. It's $5 and freakin' delicious, so says my office mate who recently moved from D.C. Where are you staying? Heidi
Ha, nice quote. I'm glad you're having fun and I'll keep reading.
Yeah, where are you staying?
We are staying in the International Youth Hostel on K and 11th. It's...interesting to say the least. Pictures will be up later.
