Arriving in DC!

My alarm went off in Rio at 4am meaning it was time to pack the last of my belongings and head to the airport! I had a very very long day ahead of me as I made my way to Washington DC as my first stop of the US (and final) leg of the trip.

I had 3 flights to catch, Rio > Bogota > San Salvador > Washington DC, all with Avianca. The main highlight of the trip was enjoying a muffin and £3.80 glasses of rose during the 6 hour layover in San Salvador.

Unfortunately none of the plane seats reclined even an inch, so sleep was hard to come by but maybe I managed 1.5 hours in total.

This was highly unfortunate as my final flight arrived into DC at 4:45am, so I had a full day ahead of me also.

After batting off a few routine questions at immigration I took a very empty metro towards the hostel I was hoping to check into.Les mer
