====== Running Up That Hill ======

Planning a special trip can be difficult. I wanted to do something special for the wife this year and decided to take her to **Washington DC**.\\
This was mainly for one reason that I really got lucky on. Her favorite band **Placebo** is playing on **May 2nd**.\\
They never play in the **United States** and are almost exclusively in **Europe**.

I am looking forward to both hearing them play and to making it happen for my wife to see them live for the first time. Something she has been telling me she has wanted to do for a while.

===== Flight of the Navigator =====

Originally, I was planning on flying to Europe but there were too many obstacles to get over to make that happen.

**Placebo** being in **Washington DC** ended up being serendipitous.

I plan to do all of the navigation, getting us from **Point A** to **Point B** and listing out places where we can go, letting the wife pick to her heart's content.\\
Offering my opinion anytime she can't decide.

Couple of places I saw that looked interesting before the big **concert** were the following:

   - The Smithsonian Museum
  - The Washington Memorial
  - The Lincoln Memorial
  - The White House
  - The National Mall
  - National Gallery of Art
  - Smithsonian's National Zoo (She saw it on the very first episode of Blacklist we rewatched… talk about good taste.)
  - Library of Congress
  - Ford's Theatre
  - Union market
  - National Portrait Gallery
  - Eastern Market
  - The Vietnam memorial
  - Tomb of the Unknown Soldier up in Arlington

No doubt we will not be able to see it all but I plan to do the best I can.
