Washington!
Washington was hot, hot, hot, and extremely humid. I sweated 24 hours a day and generally felt icky. The place was pretty cool though: I saw all the necessary sights to call myself a true tourist. Sadly I didn’t get to go out and see the nightlife much but I made it out with a bunch of people from my hostel on Saturday night into Adams Morgan, which is the cool part of Washington where all the good bars are. I met a guy named Trevor who is motorbiking around the US alone, which sounds all kinds of awesome.
The 19 hour bus to Chicago was not a lot of fun but I slept through most of it and made it to my destination unharmed. I think I need to get out more in Chicago - I haven’t partied enough lately! I haven’t been hanging out with other people enough lately either, my last couple of hostels have been pretty quiet, so hopefully this one will pick up a bit. Apparently the west coast is all about the parties. Roll on the West coast then, I say! 6 days to go until my flight. The first bit of my trip is almost over!
