My American Golden Week

Over Golden Week I went back to visit my parents in Washington, DC. I was only there for a few days, but my wife and I were able to do a lot of sightseeing.

I had about 13 hours between planes in Seattle, Washington, so I took a train downtown and went sightseeing. I’ve never been there before so it was interesting to see Seattle’s famous tower, the Space Needle, and walk around the famous Pike Place Market.

We went to downtown DC to see some museums and go to a baseball game one day. The next day we drove about an hour north to Baltimore, Maryland to see the city and visit the National Aquarium. 

The day after that we took a plane to Detroit, Michigan and drove about two hours to Bryan, Ohio, which is my mother’s hometown. We visited some friends and family there and toured the candy company in town. Then back to Japan! It was a very busy week for us.

What did you do for Golden Week?
