Embassy Row Photowalk ‘09 Wrap-up
Around 2:00 yesterday my wife and I gave each other a hug and a high five. We had survived our first organized photowalk. I wish we could take the credit but it goes to all the attendees, the warm and welcoming embassies, and of course the great weather. Big thanks to Katie, George, Victoria, Dawn, Heather and our latest addition to the group Preston for being such a joy to spend a day with.
We ended up visiting Portugal, Netherlands, Slovenia, Italy and Denmark. Not bad in one day without a passport. My favorite of the day had to be Portugal. We were led through the embassy by the Political Counselor and the tour ended with about 5 minutes of conversation with Ambassador Joao de Vallera (who is an avid photographer himself). He even posed with me for a photo though it looks like I put him to sleep.
I could drone on in words forever about our day but think it would be best to show you some of the great photos that were taken. Be sure and check them all out in the Embassy Row Photowalk Flickr Group or search Flickr for the tag EPWDC09.
