The family and I just returned from our first "real" vacation, in that we did not visit family members of any kind.
On the eve of our airplane trip to Washington D.C., Penelope was throwing up all over the place. As the vomiting subsided and we got all packed, we all got really excited to visit our friends, a few historic sites and some terrific restaurants, in that order.
And it was super fun. Let's just run down the list of transportation modes we used: an airplane; a bus; a Metro train; an SUV rental from an upgraded compact rental that was a little irritating until we found Interstate 66 shut down because of a crash and then we were happy for the extra room; a firetruck (yes, seriously); a minivan; and then our car home.
I'll post more later, with pics of course, when I feel more like doing stuff.

A firetruck?? Is there a good story with that? Isaac will be jealous!
Not really. My friend who got married is a volunteer firefighter, so her chief brought the truck. The wedding party and all the kids got to go for a ride around the block. The chief was a little nervous about the whole thing, but he ended up caving. This is all on the QT, so I won't name names.
