Tiago fixes the world's problems.

Tiago takes over the Chairman's place at the IMF's Board of Directors conference room and decides to solve all the world's problems by re-assigning all debt payments to himself. The Yeays have it. Motion carried.
[Update from 2 months later. No payments received yet, and see, still a whole bunch of problems abound. Ha.]

Téo wants to visit the Art Museum

Téo wanted to see some art in a museum, so we decided to go to the Hirshhorn Modern Art Museum.




Outside the Hirshhorn Modern Art Museum, there's one of the James Sanborn cryptographic sculptures made so famous by Dan Brown's novels.






"Look! That's Vóvó!"

To the Air & Space Museum for a snack.

Gaithersburg Reggae Concert

The city sponsors weekly concerts at its outdoor music pavillion. This week's was Reggae, so we decided to go check it out.


Téo loved his portable seat, never sitting in any one spot for more than 5 seconds, then going to site somewhere else. I guess the novelty of a portable seat was just too much exitement to actually sit and enjoy it.






Tiago doing some reading up to the beat.


The singer's speaker was blown, so the sound was kinda ... awfull. As atested by the kid in the front.

At the Pool with Sofia

White's Ferry

White's Ferry connects Virgina and Maryland across the Potomac. In one of the heaviest urban concentrations in the US, this is the only point of crossing from one state to the other for dozens of miles. They need about 4 or 5 bridges built around here, but this is a phenomenal way to travel back in time a century or so.




Driving into the Ferry.
