Dear Canada...
We're not coming home.
Buffalo is just as depressing as we remembered it -- even though the locals sure are friendly! One lady offered us a ride to the airport for real cheap. Sure, only $5 plus our skins and teeth, right?
Washington DC is not as sterile as ho-hum Ottawa. Civil servants and transit workers are incredibly helpful. Admission to many museums/galleries is free. Almost everyone has a dimple and/or regional accent. The men in DC are super cute (though our hostess swears they're super gay). They're handsome, well-mannered, sharply-dressed AND they eat well (cottage cheese in their shopping baskets)!
The snack vendor has already promised me a green card if I stay and marry him. Voula will stay on with Biddy as her creative organizational consultant/dog walker and I will be her appointment-setter. The two of us can share the bubble bed in the cozy little house on V Street and eat scuppernongs all year long! Maybe Voula will luck out and meet a hot environmental lobbyist with one of those Bostonian accents she so loves!
Tomorrow morning, we catch the Chinatown Express to New York City -- only $35 US! We've been told the Hasidic Bus is just as cheap, so we'll have to remember to check it out on our next visit. Must-buys: rice pudding, Hebie Nats and panties (though not necessarily in that order).
Smooches from the capital.
