Lise and I had long wanted a weekend just the two of us, which we got the opportunity at the end of September. The girls have all found a friend they could spend the weekend with, so Lise and I went on a weekend trip to Washington DC.

Lise has reserved a room at the historic W (Washington) Hotel. Fine weather was promised, so we could drive the Mustang with the roof down. We have not planned any major activities apart from a visit to the spy museum (The Spy Museum), out to eat at a good restaurant, and otherwise relax with some walks around the white house and the mall area.

On the way home, we drove past IKEA and bought nothing, we drove home to pick up the girls, who also had a lovely weekend.

We were a little inspired by the other tourists, who was busy taking photographs and not least taking selfies. The headline could therefore also have been the selfie trip…. See for yourself why in the pictures below (Click on the images to see them in full size).
