The bomb!

I made it home safely from Singapore.  It was a long route but almost all of my flights were either on-time or early and the flight crews were all really friendly.

Friday night Alan and I flew to Washington DC.  We're staying out in Alexandria, VA and heading into DC via Metro each day.  I'll blog more about the trip later and include lots of pictures.  For now, please know that it is pretty hot here in DC...as is the rest of the US...heat index of 111 degrees Fahrenheit.  To cool off a bit yesterday we stopped and had a bomb pop...

You may remember that a popsicle is a hard thing to come by in Singapore...so this first one...in the heat of the day yesterday...and being a bomb pop on The Mall...was just perfect.

Off to explore more before the lines get too long...
