2014 Trip - Day 7 - New York to Washington.

Today we left New York having picked up a hire car and driven to Washington.  Given that we spent the day in the car, I will not write my blog in its usual format (paragraphs).  As we drove along, in true "Donna" style, I had my camera in one hand, and my diary in another.  I have written down dot points, of my thoughts along the trip.  I shall post those dot points below.  They will probably not make any sense to you at all, however I am sure that most of you know that you have to actually be IN my head to understand what I am thinking so generally don't try to work it out...lol.

So...he are dot points as written haphazardly in pages of my diary or were my thoughts at the time.  They are not necessarily in any sort of order as I just write them where the book falls open.  Enjoy "my thoughts" even if you cannot understand them!

• (Whilst driving out of New York)  We have to take a tunnel?? (The Lincoln Tunnel which goes under the Hudson) F**k.
• (Whilst driving through the Lincoln Tunnel)  There is a leak!  I swear I saw a leak!
• (Whilst driving through the Lincoln Tunnel) F**k. F**k. F**k.
• (When coming out of the Lincoln Tunnel)  Yeah I'm cool.  That was a cinch. *rolls eyes*
• The New Jersey Turnpike is actually more than a few kilometres long?
• Oh.  The New Jersey Turnpike actually runs right into another state.  *holds up stupid sign*
• (Whilst listening to the radio) "In 1998 the devil attacked my mind".  WTF? 
• *As said by the Bear*  These houses could by f**kin' ugly.  Add a little snow and they're cute.
• The sign says A J Peters & Sons Funeral Supplies.  What the heck are funeral supplies?  Coffins?  Embalming fluid?  Make up?
• Ok so several signs say "Emergency Pull Off".  Hmmmmm....alrighty then!
• (When looking at a stand of books at a truck stop in Wilmington , Delaware).  "Bad Girls of the Bible & What You Can Learn from Then".  *blinks*
• Is that a Tornedo or Ranchero?
• Geeezus....another f**kin tunnel!
• So who named "Blue Balls Road"  and why?
• Oh that's DEAVER Road....NOT Beaver. Get your mind out of the gutter.
• District of Columbia.  So THAT is what D.C stands for?  *holds up another stupid sign*
• Cheesy Garlic Bread chips.  Omm nomm or no-no?
• Creepywoods Haunted Forrest.  Now that is my type of theme park! Well as long as there is no tunnels.
• How often does James Spader drive this road?
• Ok...enough of the New Jersey Turnpike already.  When does it end?
• Is Nic awake?
• Muffy Duck.
• I need a pee.
• Why don't these houses have any fences?  Do they not mind people getting in?  DO they not mind people getting out?
• Yahoo!  Bring on Walmart!
• Hello Sailor!  You're not?
• I seriously could go a burrito.
• East Greenwich looks seriously pretty!
• Who decided that Greenwich is pronounced GRENITCH rather than GREEEENWITCH?
• So Maryland is a state not a city?  *Holds up another stupid sign*   Good heavens. Who knew....
• 24,000 people work at the Pentagon.
• Another snow storm coming?  Nooooooo!
• "Ding Dong the witch is dead.  Which old witch?  The wicked witch".
• Again...what is with these plumbers rooting?
• In search of the illusive Reese white chocolate peanut butter cups again!
• You might call it an elevator.  We call it a lift.
• I hate snow.  And tunnels.

So not a very interesting read, but a read none a the less.  We arrived in Washington safely albeit a little more grey.  We are staying in a hotel opposite the Pentagon which is pretty cool!  Tomorrow we will be visiting some of the monuments so hopefully I should have a little more to write about then!
