Mighty winds have trapped me in Washington DC –

Two Big Blue Buses and a free shuttle to LAX —


Then a flight on Alaska Air —

Then a ride on the Metrorail — and I got to Washington DC late last night.

The trains here are super clean and speedy and easy to use — but the fare structure’s really, really complicated — so complicated that after staring at the farecard machines for a while, I had to get help from the nice guy in the kiosk for help.

And luckily for me, I didn’t throw out my farecard after I got on the train — I discovered you need it again to get out of the destination station –
