Hanging out in the capital for a couple days

We left Andy and Natalie's place and took a trainride to the big city. It's been so relaxing. Andy and Nat scored an apartel 24 floors above the city and we are a 5 minute walk from McDonald's where the coffee is excellent. Through the technology of Slingbox we all watched the ASU-USC game live (complete w/ nachos and salsa) via Andy's computer hooked up to the TV screen. Slingbox allows you to synch your computer with your TV back home so you can watch every channel you receive at home any place in the world...that has a high speed connection. While baby Jenda napped Andy and I caught a subway for the forbidden city. Sure enough, the city is laid out in a true North-South orientation. Then, last night we went celebrated Thanksgiving Diner at the Outback. It's been a short trip but a good trip--hanging out with Andy and Nat, bonding with baby Jenda. Today we go back to Colorado.
