Wedding Trip - Day 2

Left hotel at 0900L (Nicky still complaining). Drove over to Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park and looked around for a little while. Stopped for brunch at Dennys at 1030L. Nicky was interested in seeing Arlington Cemetery, so we drove over there. It was quiet and nice and we got to see the major sights: Tomb of the Unknowns, JFK eternal flame (etc.). We looked around DC after that. Ended up visiting the National Cathedral as well (1500L). Realized we were behind schedule, so we got on our way again around 1600L. Used I-95 to I-83 and then drove north to I-78. Stopped for gas in Kutztown / Lenhartsville, Pennsylvania (1915L). Then got on I-80. Crossed Hudson on George Washington Bridge on I-95. Called Dad to let him know we would be late and he got mad. He said we should find a hotel instead of showing up after midnight. It was kind of shocking - I'm actually kind of pissed. We headed over towards the Cape anyway and found a Navy Lodge in Groton, Connecticut. It was a nice place, actually - on the beach! In bed by 0030L.
