After a day at leisure in in Wiliamstown we scooted down to DC for another book talk (this time a well attended house party) and a few days being tourists. There seemed to be security alerts wherever we went. Massive turnout of police, ambulances, firetrucks, hazmat teams and even FBI for a "suspect package" at Union Station and an almost equally impressive show of how well we are protected from terrorists when someone became trapped in a metro elevator in the more leafy suburbs where we were staying. A large group of police motorcyclists however were having a great time over by the Capitol showing off their skills in a competition based on riding around traffic cones and tossing footballs into cardboard boxes!
We walked our feet off seeing the sights - the photos are a summary of what we saw.
