Happy Halloween!

Halloween was celebrated on Saturday in this neck of the woods. With Hurricane Sandy a day away, it added a bit of extra spook to the evening. I trekked to Columbia Heights to celebrate my friend Vansa's birthday Halloween style! I dressed as a German girl because, well, I was just there and also I was going to be an Olympic swimmer, but my friends at this party I know through swimming. I just couldn't bring myself to be a swimmer at a swimmer party.

The people at Vansa's were dressed as everything from smurfs to warriors, taxi cabs to crash victims. And then we went out on U Street. And then this picture happened at the end of the night.

Happy Halloween everyone!
