So we ventured a bit further afield in the last couple of days. On Saturday we drove to Annapolis:

and watched all the rich people parade their boats around the harbour. It was crazy crowded because it is the Labor day long weekend here (and summer).
We visited the Annapolis Naval Academy, which was really cool. Kinda like ADFA but on a giant scale. We are going to get a card reader tomorrow so we can upload photos, but here is a photo from flickr of the huge dining hall - we counted seats for about 2500.
Tried to order a flat white today, and ended up getting a short black - oh well. Guess it is cappuccino or latte from now on!
Today we drove around Columbia:

where we are thinking of living. It is kind of Canberra-esque, planned with lots of parks, small man-made lakes, and greenery. The houses look very....American. Lots of white and flagpoles, very different to home.
PS. The blog is "G in the US" not some sort of roman god "Gintheus" :)
