It has been one week since you looked at me...

Hello World.
It is has been just over a week since I left Belfast at 4am and began a pretty epic journey to the surreal world of Washington DC. 18hours later and I found myself flying into DC past the Washington Monument and with a perfect shot of the Capitol. From free range horses running around the streets in Newry, Judi napping on any available floor, a few strategic repacking moments on the floor of the checkout area (apparently the airline did not appreciate my need for, well, everything I own travelling in my suitcase) to an amazing welcome by our Host Families in the airport, we had a pretty smooth journey.
Our week has been absolutely jam-packed and I can't thank the MT enough for ensuring it all went smoothly! They have done a fantastic job and we all appreciate it a lot. Tomorrow I will start my internship in the office of Congressman Walsh so unfortunately I won't be able to fill you in on this past week just yet as I will be heading to bed (Lauren has decided that she is not going to change her body clock from GMT so it is currently some extremely silly hour for her- genius).
I will try and update this over the next few days so stayed tuned!
All the best,
L

3 things come to mind reading this blog.

1. How did the homeland security people let you in! Where is Ellis Island when you need it most?

2. Can that really be Lala all dressed up in the political power dressing gear?

3. President Bush would be advised to lock up his policy people to keep them safe from Lauren the persistent!
