Washington pictures

Washington was so great. its alot older and cuter then i thought. i think i keep expecting cities to be like home except bigger, but they never are, im really starting to see how young nz really is. washington is very cute, sweet and family orientated. i loved the old vintage houses that i could easily mistake for doll houses. each little room is so cluttered with love and cherished stories. i was told that most of the "washington styled houses are from world war two, they were built for that purpose but now days families refurbish them for cute family homes." the history behind them and the sweet structure itself made me want to live in DC purely for the houses. the city itself is nice and clean and easy to get around. i did all the tourist monuments although skipped most of the museums, im not proud to admit it but i really dont care for museums at all. i think the idea of them is great but personally, after weakly trying to get into a few i found myself much happier reading under a tree with the sun on my back, feeling the grass under my feet and getting frights from the hyper squirrels running around me. the people there are so nice and kind i felt like making friends with everyone i passed and it left you going home on the train with that buzzy little feeling in your chest that maybe people are good after all. hope you like the pics, i have about a million so was hard to chose....















some thoughts right now:
- Neutral Milk Hotel and Death Cab for Cutie just jumped their way up into my most favorite bands ever
- I am falling in love with Bright Eyes and Brand New all over again and wonder how i can make Jesse Lacey marry me
- I really must get to a top shop sometime soon
- wondering what 93 degrees is in whatever we measured temperature in in nz?
- and i am very excited about fourth of July this weekend, spending the day at the Greenwich Beach soaking up some precious salt water and watching She & Him this weekend in the city.

what are you thinking?
