Food is very important when you are traveling. I always like to sample the authentic local cuisine. In this case that meant a "small" 14 ounce steak. The largest on the menu was 32 ounces - that's enough to feed a family!

So, two heavy meat-filled meals (not to mention breakfast!) and I have been exposed to America's finest. Beats the French restaurants which always give you TINY portions, but I think I had enough calories yesterday to last me for a week!

Off to D.C. later today . . . .
