WASHINGTON, DC: FIGHT AGAINST GHOSTS AND DEMONS

The Grandma saying goodbye to Yasmina
After leaving Yasmina with the Amish Community in Lancaster, The Beans have arrived to Washington, DC. They are astonished with Yasmina's decision but, of course, they respect it. She has written a beautiful goodbye's letter to her family explaining her real reasons to not continue the rest of the journey with them. 

Yasmina tells that living with the Amish Community will allow her to have the healthiest life, in the quietest place with the most peaceful people who create their own clothes and grow their own food. She has been living a frenetic life as an individual athlete and now she only wants peace, relax and a life under the rules of a community.

The Beans are in the capital of the USA and they have chosen the shore of the Potomac to rest and review their English classes. Today, they have talked about Superlative Adjectives and Neither/Both of them before visiting the Washington National Cathedral.

Washington, DC is a city that has been witness of hundreds of historical past events, lights and shadows of the American history, a city that resume the worst ghosts and demons from the past, lives an intense present and draw the future of millions of people around the world.

The Beans arriving to the White House
It has been a day of incredible surprises because after Yasmina's story, the family has known the last news about the Federal shutdown that affects the most part of places and sights that they wanted to visit. 

They don't understand this decision that puts in danger thousands of employments and changes the normal life of the most part of the Federal institutions like museums, monuments or national parks. 

This is the main reason because they have visited the White House to try to talk with their inhabitants and try to arrive to a deal to avoid this uncomfortable situation. As you know, all things that happen in the White House are top secret and nobody has access to them but, in that case, some people assure that they have heard an old female voice asking aloud what the hell was happening there and reclaiming her rights to visit the most important and historical places. Other people assure that they had heard sentences like "Do you want to make America great again? Sure? Then, end with the shutdown, pay your workers and open the public buildings now".


Tomorrow, the family is visiting some old Grandma's friends, Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, because they need their help to try to solve the mystery of the sinking in Liberty Island, a real X-File. They're a little afraid because they are sure that a ghost rescued them. All of them heard the same song while they were swimming, Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah, but as you know, this is impossible because ghosts don't exist, do they?

The truth is out there…


Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. 
They live inside us, and sometimes, they win.
