I went to the Warped Tour in Bristow, VA today. I was knackered for most of the day, in addition to the humidity rising and me thus spending the whole day with a thin sticky layer of sweat all over me. Horrible. It wasn't really my kind of thing, my mate wanted to go, but we came back and went to Chinatown for food.
The previous day (Wednesday) we ended up doing all sorts of things, mostly going to all the touristy things - all the memorials, including Lincoln's and Jefferson's, plus a brief look at the White House and Capitol Building, and got to see plenty of interesting stuff in the National Archives, such as the Declaration of Independence - it's fucked! You can't read it at all, the writing's faded away! Oh well, I suppose it's kind of old, but we had a fun, exhausting day.
A note: beer in DC is far too expensive, and varies wildly between around $3 to $6-7. I saw Stella Artois on tap, and decided to ask for 3 pints (or whatever the equivalent is), and it came to $19.50. I was not pleased. Then my mate goes and gets 3 bottles of Corona at another place: $6. There's no justice.
