Isn't Washington the Fentanal epi centre of the US.

Drug addicts littering the streets just around the corner from the tourist area were they throw Pike fish at each other?

^Was there twice, first time I was there, I saw a mugging and gun shots from my hotel.

Check out Georgetown for sure.

Indeed. Just this afternoon the GF damn near cracked me up with her impersonation of Gerald Ford.

Let's face it they're the only ones stupid enough to join his school.

Thank you.

“Historically, DC hasn't really been known as a foodie destination. But that’s all changed in recent years. I’m telling you, it’s shedding its steak and potatoes reputation with an explosion of new cuisines.”

Wait, what!?

What’s wrong with Steak and Potatoes?

Any, a good recommendation, thank you.

Some buddies went here yesterday while I was working

A Michelin starred chicken restaurant.

I did enjoy some pork belly with bao buns. They were make your own.

Ikr. I shall hang my head in shame. I shall hand in my Aussie man card.

Does it count that I didn’t finish it? I was half a dozen beers in and saw the coloured can and thought ‘oooh, another IPA to try’. I didn’t even realise they made zero strength IPAs.

Im ok with that, allow some folks that cant drink responsibly be allowed a drink. But but it should be labeled large, like those health warnings on smokes.

Found a great little place serving German food last night. A little out of town but the prices were very reasonable.

DC in the rear view mirror now. Good timing because it’s a raining cold day.

Speaking of expensive, $6 for a trolley!

Dulles airport is grim.

Funny story, the checkin counter is strangely empty, started queueing anyway and a fellow come over and said there’s no flights today! Mild panic as I’m trying to check where my flight is leaving from, perhaps it’s a code share with another flight? Hope I’m not in the wrong airport…am I the wrong day?

Then I realized the error of relying on my calendar event and not the actual tickets (sheeeet. Timezones)
