2-6-2011 Chinese New Year Parade and Car Show

Looking for something to do in town on Sunday, since it was pretty cold and we had just gotten back from a trip and not feeling much like travelling, we decided to check out the Chinese New Years parade in DC's Chinatown. This is a few square blocks by the Verizon Center - easy to get to on Metro. Lots of people lining the street but the Parade was so lame! It sealed our opinion of parades back here - they are just an opportunity for random folks to walk down the street and be seen. Lame bands, lame dragons, lame, lame. No more DC parades.











After that, we went to the final day of the DC New Car show. Got all enthused by the new Chevys, amazed by the hybrid engines in the Fords and wowed by the $185K Mercedes - now that's my kind of car. Lots of fun.
