A big thunderstorm blew through Washington DC on Wednesday night, and like an idiot I went up on the roof to watch the wind, lightning and rain.

Quick video today with a Marine One landing at Fort McNair (White House landing zone was fouled) and then a run up to Baltimore just in time to see the Key Bridge, or what's left of it, blown up and off the stricken MV DALI.

A fox was captured at the US Capitol so we went up to look for the den to see if any baby foxes were still around, but before that I managed to catch Joe Biden heading out of the White House and back again in a motorcade. There were also some people trying to chain themselves to the White House fence, and a visit to the National Cathedral to show you the Dark Lord of the Sith.

Marine One came in last night and I filmed a bit of it, but not enough to make an entire video so I decided to tack it on to today's video from Capitol Hill, where the House was voting (and voting again) on naming a House Speaker, the third in line to the Presidency. It didn't go well, and as of this upload, is still ongoing. Still, take a look around as we walk to the Capitol and find a chicken sandwich.

Not much exciting going on in the city today, so I just went out for a bicycle ride around the National Mall filled with tourists. I got a late start so I didn't meet up with the trucker's who were handing out food packets to the homeless until quite late in the day, but eventually I found them and chatted for a bit. Anyway, more interesting stuff to come I'm sure.
