The 18th October brought with it a cold Sunday morning, a long flight, and a day lasting more than 24 hours. Why? I had a school trip to Washington, D.C. and New York City.
Washington was, for me, the best of the 8 days abroad because of the stunning architecture and relevance to my History A Level. Here's a few of the best snaps from my three days there.

New York was pretty awesome too, but I am not a fan of busy places particularly and so found it a little bit stressful - especially when there's someone dressed up as the Joker in Times Square saying "why so serious?" behind you.

These are just a few of the pictures. We also went to Gettysburg on the transfer from Washington to New York in order to see the battlefield. It was an incredible trip, but I was very happy to get back home and return to my normal sleeping pattern.
Until next time, folks.
