Take me out to the ballgame

Today we took the metro out to the Nationals Ballpark for the baseball game against the Mets.

I went for the red team - and they won!

There was lots of US patriotism at the game - there were mascot versions of the Presidents welcoming people to the stadium, the star spangled banner before the first pitch, God, bless America after the 7th inning and a race of presidents too! (we barracked for Teddy Roosevelt but Lincoln pipped him at the post)

The ice-cream was good - as were the hot dogs and I even scored a free packet of Salt and Vinegar chips on the way out.
