National Museum of the Marine Corps v oblasti Quantico, Virginia (okružná jazda autom)

Konečne pre mňa nastal deň voľna a tak som si mohol spraviť jednodenný výlet autom po oblasti kde som bývali. V tomto príspevku preto zahŕňam moje dopoludnie strávené v múzeu námorníkov.

Trip to Virginia Beach (with Christina, Mary Ellen, Nina, Little John, Roman)





Our trip can begin - the cowgirl's driving, coutry music playing and 161 miles to reach our destination - Virginia Beach






Our crew - John, Martin, Roman, Christina (the first car)







View Larger Map





...first time we saw the see (or better say delta of Potomac river)






Tunnel!






In the tunnel.





...after the tunnel (Btw, country music is still playing :-)






Still on the way






This looks good - we have good directions :-) VA Beach straight ahead.






64 East






Cowgirls face: "Which way?" :-)






Upsss :-(






...we hit the back of Mary Ellen's car. And now nobody is happy :-( :-( :-( Nobody's fault - just a lot of traffic and hard brakes in front of our car. We couldn't stop in time :-(






We're smiling but only because everybody is OK!






Good work :-(






...trying to fix it. But all of our effort does't help.






...maybe a little :-)






John tried CPR (Cardio Pulminary Resusciation), but it didn't help, either.






...so we have to call 911! Maybe they'll help.






Waiting for help.






Time of sadness...






...continues :-(






And the help is coming!






...yes, Mr. policeman...I'll be a good girl. :-)






We are still nervous - what's going on over there?






Everything ended up better than we expected - no fine and no driving licence taken away... maybe we will be able to continue our trip..






And we did. Here we are in the streets of Virginia Beach...






...walking to visit Mary Ellen's aunt who has a shop somewhere there.






We hit the shop! Said 'hello' to her aunt and John is finally happy because he can change his clothes.






And here we are all happy to see the sea on the coast of Virginia Beach - actually it's Atlantic ocean.






...with really good waves (which then we used to do bodysurfing).






Boring moment came - why not to bury somebody under the sand?






John was the first voluntary victim.






Standing on the grave :-)






..he looks very happy! :-)






A dog lost his bone...(accidentaly on John's grave)...






..nice speed boat.






...nice cruise boat.






V :-)




















The coast of Virginia Beach with the hotels on right side.






The other side of the coast.













Roman






...lots of people..






Dracula! Or very very cold water face.






Jump in!






Really really salty.






So, now they don't know that I'm taking picture.






...now they discovered me...






...and now it's time to make cute faces...






...and one more time!






Just relaxing...






...no no no, no more pictures!






Seriously.






..OK, just one more. :-)






Goofy face :-) ...tired from bodysurfing.






...not so tired






My time came...






..finally I have a portrait where I look quite good :-) ...without the face.






..me again.






We just like each other. BUT I couldn't do anything! I was buried.






All of us together. Before leaving Virginia Beach.






..and now, seriously - we are leaving Virginia Beach :-(






There were these kind of buses.






The very awkward moment - as we vere waiting and relaxing here on the bench John was hit by bird poop. Funny for us!






When you are polite..everything is possible :-)






Stuff...






..helping with a choice.






..no comment... just 2Cute 2talk 2U...






Streets walking...






And here we are on the pier






..lots of other stuff.






That's something for her. Bad girl!






The pier






Last look at Virginia beach from the pier.






Merry-go-rounds






..this machine has to have heart!






Typical T-shirt shop






..that's a business, man!






I got you :-)...I mean the picture






Even if it wasn't Christmas they still had a Christmas shop open.






...inside of the shop.






Wanna buy it?






It's really cool glass. You have to buy it.






Sailors on the land.






Fountain child






The pool was on the roof of a hotel.



























...some typical American old car






One of the bunch of hotels






...hotels






The sunset is starting..






..everything is getting orange






...and nicer






Streets






..almost sunset






My favorite one!













..notice? John has his magic bamboo stick. Be carefull!



























The set of the photos is in shark's mouth





































































The set of the night pictures.













Roman and Mayor






All of us before the journey back.






And the journey back...





Conclusion: Digital camera battery is empty. Memery card is full. Exhausted feeling, and happy comeback! Very very nice trip. Thank you all.
