Weekend in Tyson's Corner (Near DC)
Sunday, April 01, 2007
So we were in for another weekend in Washington cause we didn’t finish up our work in time, but this week we had to check out of our beloved Ritz Carlton and check into the Sheraton Premiere which was about 15 minutes away from work.
So over any other hotel now that I've been in the Ritz, its just not the same. Its like driving a Lamborghini for 2 weeks and then trading it in for an Citi Golf. But anyway, tears aside we moved to the Sheraton and for the weekend we decided to just hang around Tysons corner.
It was cold and we went shopping for anything really. We found a great golf shop but didn’t buy anything. There are so many car dealerships, all the cars just stand outside waiting to get bought. Here are some Hummers and Corvette's that we saw…
We ended up buying 2 baseball bats and a couple of balls just to mess around. On the way back to the hotel we stopped to get some water from a vending machine and my change got stuck inside. After pushing the button about 100 times we eventually realized that if we hit the machine the change came out. So this old lady walks past and there Rob is holding 2 baseball bats while I was screaming and punching the machine. Pretty funny (you had to be there).
We found a place to schmack the balls around in some park. Rob managed to smack a ball from the other side of the park and land it directly into the storm water drain - talented.
That night we hit Georgetown for a few beers. We ended up having about 15 and stealing straws and just causing shit cause nobody was really paying attention to us. Not one of the best nights out but what can you do!
Sunday we chilled, and Monday back to wek!
Check out a few more pics here.
