DC outing for Chinese New Year

 While Jeff studied, Ariel & I hit the Smithsonians.  Our big Chinese New Year party was canceled the day before due to snow (bummer.)  Jeff helped us get last-minute tickets to Disney on Ice. So between museums, we economized with a packed lunch.  Ariel had a short nap in the theater at the Native American Museum.  As always, she's in her element being out on adventures, just like Dora.

 Disney on Ice was at the Verizon Center in Chinatown (downtown DC.)  Our Chinatown is very small, but was bustling with people and lights this snowy evening.  We lingered to enjoy the sights.  Disney on Ice was lively with lots of music, dancing, and theatrics from Mickey Mouse and many other Disney characters.




 Happy Rice Girl (her chopsticks eventually landed on the floor.)  We sat by another Disney-on-Ice family.  The little girls were excellent pee role models in the bathroom (they had a "who can pee the fastest" contest in the stall next to us, so Ariel & I did the same.)

 Vegetarian "chicken" and broccoli at Chinatown Garden.  



Riding the DC Metro is a thrill in itself.
