But I am a boring former archaeologist, so you may be subjected to ancient history and pubs.
But, I think you could always handle it.
Would love to meet my godless friends on my relatively godless isle.
Perhaps we’ll have to meet up with you when we are back that way. Tibs has an archaeologist sister. Fascinating work.

Miami and Orlando are also fun, hip places to visit. The rest of the east coast cities are: meh... DC is popular but i find it overrated. Most places close early unless things have changed since i visited.
DC is overrated as a tourist spot, but for some reason I want more than anything to live and work there.
Edit: actually now that I think about it DC has a lot of great stuff, I've just seen it all so many times that I don't care anymore. So I guess I just disagree overall.

Former archaeologist?
You'll have a captive audience with Min and myself.
One of my big passions in life is archaeology!

Sorry...with three kids, that's too far to travel. It needs to be someplace more centrally located

I like DC. I would be happy to revisit. I just founded it overrated. There wasn't much of a night life. But i haven't been there in years so maybe things have changed. I wasn't sure if this was Valk's first time in the east coast and was referring to places with plenty of activities and night life. Tourist hot spots.

Abandon them and then say god told you to.
You'll be forgiven, have a break from the kids, and have them back inside a week.
