We visited Aunt Margot in DC this weekend! Sasha had a blast. Traveling by Amtrak, helping Aunt Margot take Sri the Dog for a walk or two, staying up after everyone else was sleeping, cheering on marathoners, playing outside with the neighbors and their toys, inventing Hulk Handshakes with Margot's friends, sleeping all the way through his "special night with Aunt Margot and Eileen," playing drums, making waffles, visiting Smithsonian museums, playing Two-Headed Monster, haggling for more ice cream, and about 20 other awesome fun things. He told us on no uncertain terms that we were not going home because he wants to stay and play in DC. When we got off the train in NY, he acted like we had tricked him into going home. "Yew Nork? No! I want to GO TO D.C.!!"

This boy certainly loves to travel. Sounds like a great visit! Love and kisses from Hong Kong again.
ReplyDeleteFor a three year old Sasha is more well traveled than most adults! No wonder he wanted to stay in DC, it sounds like it was a blast. I think it would have tired me out; not you two moms? Love Margo's hair cut, very cute. Absolutely love Yew Nork, the new way to say New York. He's adorable. Love you Sasha!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great trip blog! This kid, like Monica said, is well traveled. I was lucky to get out of Illinois at his age. Maybe Wisconsin, maybe North & South Dakota. Ah, each place has its treasures, but DC IS fun! I love that city. And love the Bub's haircut. And his and Aunt Margot's matching Superperson t-shirts. Or is "Superman" allowed in your house? And thanks for the family photo at the end. A keeper for me. Hugs to you all.
