Photos from Allentown and Washington! |
|
|

Before visiting Washington we spent some time with John, Krystal, Colin and Hayley. Ou thanks to them for their fantastic hospitality, it really was fantastic! A couple of photos, from Allentown! The basketball game we went to, a first for us both, a particular highlight. Especially the cheerleaders! These are also our photos from Washington where we from 22nd to 25th. Whilst there we went on an 8 mile walk visiting all the major sites (and there are loads!) Of note were the Arlington cemetary where JFK is buried. I (Marcus) also visited the Capitol to see Congress and US politics in action. |

This is our room at John and Krystals, which was brilliant, with cable internet connection. satellite TV, a pool table, table tennis table and an XBox. What more could we have asked for?! |
