Sunday morning we went out for brunch to celebrate Mother's Day with Ellen while she was here. We went to
Mrs. K's Toll House, a historical site and highly recommended restaurant in Silver Spring. Brunch was great, but getting there ended up being an adventure in itself. It was pouring rain, so we planned on driving. When we got down to the parking garage, we found out the car battery was dead...a light was left on. After getting back to the apartment and calling 10 different taxi companies, we finally got though to one that would send a cab. Thankfully, Mrs. K's was nice enough to hold our table on a very busy morning and we were able to enjoy our meal! AAA came and gave us a jump, so the car is working again.
Here are the girls saying goodbye to Oma and Opa (the orange and blue specks) as they walked to the Metro station to head to the airport. The area that's under construction is going to be a new transportation station (bus, Metro, etc) in Silver Spring, and the station we use is just to the right of that area. We had a wonderful time with Mark and Ellen and are so grateful they came to spend time with us!
