We haven't been back to Washington DC for years, so we decided it was time for another visit. Following the debacle of the BA Executive Club demolition, we decided to blow some Avios and a Companion Voucher.
Welcome to The Billingham Blog! This is a record of Nigel and Vicky Billingham’s journey through life, primarily focusing on holidays, trips and events.
We are in the process of migrating our blog over from tumblr, which became far too restrictive with limited opportunities to expand. So we are hosting ourselves now with Hostinger.
That means it’s going to take us a while to migrate stories over, refine them and manage links to flickr photos. So bear with us!
