お出かけ♪ Air and Space Museum

仲良しの友達がボルチモアから遊びに来たので、ご希望のNational Air and Space Museumにみんなでお出かけ。高校以来のスミソニアン… 友達の５歳児ホーランドはビージェイが大のお気に入り。電車の中では、ビージェイにどうしても隣りに座って欲しくって、彼が座るまでず〜っと名前を呼んでいた…　苦笑

Good friends and their kids came to visit us from Baltimore on Sunday. We all went to National Air and Space Museum by metro. Their oldest, Holland (5 yo) seems to like Beejay a lot and he was busy asking him to sit next to him in the train whole time, literally calling his name until he sat down next to Holland...

Food log :: Kabab ケバブ

中近東からの移民が多いのか、この辺りはケバブのお店が沢山！中近東の食べ物にハマっているのでかなり嬉しすぎる〜♥　でもあまりにも多くって、全部チェックするのには時間的にも金銭的にも可能かなぁ〜？？今回はDuke House of Kebabというお店に行ってみたよ。お肉を焼いている匂いが店の外でするので、中に入る前にすでにお腹がグルグル〜♪　中には小ちゃいお店もあってパンとかお米やスパイスも売ってた。フルサービスのレストランでなく、お持ち帰りの人もいっぱい来てたかな。

In the DC metro area, it seems to be there are so many kebab or Middle Eastern restaurants and that is making me really happy~♥ But since there are so many of them, it will take a while to check them out... As our first place, we went to Duke House of Kebab that was close to the home. Out side of the restaurant, you can already notice yummy smell of kebab grilling which made my stomach grumble... Inside, they also sell grocery such as rice, pita bread and spices. This isn't full-service restaurant and there were handful people for take-out.

Rally @ the Mall ひと、人、ひと!!!

またまた遅い更新ですが、先月末にワシントンDCのモールで開かれたラリーに行ってきました。行った時間が遅かったとはいえ、すごい人数が集合。人ごみかき分けて、ステージに近づく事を試みたものの、全然近くまで行けなかったよ〜　メトロもすごい混み様でビックリ！

Once again, it is a late post... We went to Restore Sanity and/ore Fear rally that was held at the Mall in DC on Oct. 29th by Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert. BUT! there were insane amount of of people at the Mall and it was quite impossible to get closer to the stage... Even the metro was very crowded. It was crazy!!

ご飯日記 Food logs in Northern Virginia

:: Snoopy mug from Target. I have one too! ::

週末はサイトには載っていないブランチメニューが豊富。私はSanta Fe Omelet をオーダー。ここはフルサービスのレストランというよりも、Panera Breadみたいに自分で飲み物やフォークなどを取りに行く形式。新しいお友達と日曜ブランチをしたんだけど、１１時頃はかなりこんでいたよ〜

It seems like they have pretty extensive breakfast menu during weekends. I ordered Sanfa Fe Omelet and it was good. This place is not full-service restaurant, but more like Panera Bread where you get your own refills and utensils, etc. I met up with my new friend there around 11AM on Sunday, and there was line to order...
