To celebrate a very special birthday I was taken back to America in November 2010.
We stayed at an apartment at Georgetown and were really spoilt with cloudless blue skies and temperatures up in the mid to high 60's.
We'd been to Washington back in the mid 1990's and having watched the entire TV series "The West Wing" TWICE – our next trip over the pond HAD to be to the nation's capital.
The Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum was fantastic and all the monuments looked terrific bathed in sunshine.
We had such a ball that we're already making plans for another trip soon.
