Random Ramblings: Winchester Virginia.
http://lorrainepring.blogspot.com/2011/10/winchester-virginia.html
Saturday, October 1, 2011. Winchester was to be our base for 4 nights while David took part in his training. Our hotel was The Wingate. First day training for the guys was in the meeting room and also surveillance training in the surrounding streets. I was lucky enough to catch a ride to the mall on one of the training runs and managed to get some shots on my phone. Well behaved students…. Neighbouring streets. One of the few days we saw a blue sky. One of the better Restaurants. The s* t stirrers.

Random Ramblings: Amtrak Acela. DC-NYC.
http://lorrainepring.blogspot.com/2011/10/amtrak-acela-dc-nyc.html
Saturday, October 22, 2011. Amtrak Acela. DC-NYC. We weighed all our options on transport to New York and our decision was the train. First Class no less. Coffee and snacks in the First Class Lounge before boarding were pretty ordinary, but we only had to walk10 metres from the lounge to board. Drink orders were taken before we departed and we settled for coffee. Nine am is a tad early for anything else. Free Wi-Fi was a perk as well. Not that easy to take photos…. Crowne Plaza Times Square.

We missed the areas near Wall Street and the United Nations because the UN was sitting and the close streets were blocked. We travelled the complete loop and on our second time round we got off at the Empire State Building. Times Square by day. Following photos taken from Empire State Building…cloudy again.

Random Ramblings: Washington Day 2 cont.
http://lorrainepring.blogspot.com/2011/10/washington-day-2-cont.html
Wednesday, October 19, 2011. Washington Day 2 cont. Heading back to our hotel we passed the White House again.There were several choppers circling and we also saw the Presidential Chopper. Further along the activity increased and we then saw the flashing lights and heard the screaming sirens…Presidential Motorcade…our problem was we were a block away and could only see the vehicles and not the occupants. All we needed to end a long day was FOOD. Wednesday, October 19, 2011. Another Cloudy Day in NYC.
