DC

Two very different views of Washington DC taken today -the Capitol Building and the Ohio and Chesepeake Canal in Georgetown.The canal scene is just a couple of kms from the White House .And talking of the White House we were on a boat trip on the Potomac this afternoon when the President flew into the White House from Andrews Air Force Base .Three very distinctive helicopters ,accompanied by an armed US Coast Guard Zodiac on the river (just in case they had to ditch).Two helicopters landed at the White House and one hovered overhead.The stream of airliners flying into Ronald Regan Airport was stopped whilst he flew in .
