This will be a very quick post, but I wanted to say that I've arrived safely in Washington, D.C. for my internship with the U.S. Election Assistance Commission! I had a direct Delta flight from Atlanta to Ronald-Reagan National Airport. The flight was surprisingly short (the stewardesses didn't even get to serve drinks due to a little mid-flight turbulance) and the landing was beautiful. We got a very nice view of the Capitol and a few of the monuments as well as the Potomac River. A good friend and his wife picked me up from the airport, took me to dinner, and got me to Thompson-Markward Hall where I'm staying. I've pretty much completely unpacked and plan to spend tomorrow picking up a few other necessities and figuring out how to maneuver the Metro system before I start work Monday morning.
Obviously, the food posts will be fewer and farther between this summer as I do not have access to a kitchen but I have several posts saved up to fill in some of the gaps. I'm planning to blog about my internship either here or on a separate blog. If I decide to use a seperate blog, I'll certainly cross post over here. I miss everyone already but I'm excited to be here! Everyone has been very nice thus far and I think this is going to be a good experience. Until next time :)
