The capitol of USA! This was the second stop on our road trip on US East coast. The weather continued to be super good with the heat wave on, and the city bathed in sun. There are plenty of motels and hotels to choose from while driving in USA. However, when we arrived to Washington D.C. in the evening, we found more or less the last hotel with rooms in the city. Every other place seemed to be way beyond our price range, or booked. Even this hotel had rates for the last free rooms three times higher than what we used to pay for a typical room. It was tempting to just pay and stay in the city, but we made the right choice when we decided to try our luck and drive 15-20 minutes out of the city to see if any motels show up.
We headed down the Interstate-66 (which we first mistook as the historical-66, not knowing it starts in Chicago) and spotted motel signs in a local town of Vienna. The motel was small but comfortable enough, and it was well equipped with a mexican restaurant just next to it. This was more we had hoped for! In the morning we headed back to Washington D.C, took a tour here and there to see the major attractions, and finally headed back to our rental car and continued towards Niagara Falls. And yes, George was at home (as the marine guard was at his post).
