It was another cold day in the DC area. The wind made it even worse.
In the morning we met with the staff at Mom's assisted living and found out that the norovirus had hit Mom last night. The facility was still under quarantine. We were asked if we wanted to see Mom, but we didn't want to risk getting this contagious bug right before going on a cruise so we declined. It's too bad we didn't get to see her, but she doesn't always recognize us. At least we had a good meeting with the staff and got some new clothes for her.
We went to Panera Bread for lunch and people watching. There are no PB franchises in Alaska, so it's always a treat to be able to go there. People watching: three old geezers taking up two (!) tables at the peak of the lunchtime rush not eating lunch, but with cups of coffee they had been nursing for hours, while a woman was standing there holding her tray and looking for a place to sit. Their comment: "It sure is crowded in here." Clueless.
We had a nice dinner with Bobi and then we watched the State of the Union. By the end of the speech it was snowing hard at the Capitol. It was starting to snow in Bethesda, too, and we decided we would leave a half an hour earlier for BWI tomorrow.
