Day 198 - Ringling Bros Circus and Walter Reed Medical Center

We had seen that the circus was in town.  This is the last year of performances buy the famous Ringling Brothers - Barnum & Bailey Circus and we just could resist.  So we bit the bullet and sprung for three tickets...don't ask how much...yikes!  We boarded the train and headed into the city once again to the Verizon Center Auditorium.  The circus was awesome.  Wonderful acts, great animals, acrobats, and performances.

We had planned to have lunch in Chinatown...Chinese food to me finally...only six months worth of promises and finally it was going to happen...you see, Bobbie is no fan of the cuisine.  However her headache had gotten worse and we were all concerned.  We rode the train back to the car and then drove out to Bethesda and Walter Reed Naval Hospital.  Service was in the usual superb military hospital fashion and we lucked out with a brand new Georgetown intern who specializes in neurology.

Four hours later they could not find anything and with some medication we headed home for the night.
