Washington Adventist University

Sabbath afternoon, driving and doing some sight-seeing of some of the Adventist landmarks we had heard about growing up. It was so hot that the friends we ate lunch with did not wanted to come with us. They said that only the tourist are out with the heat of over 100F with humidity in the 90s. The locals stay indoors in the air-conditioning.
We did not expect them to come with us, so off we went to see the sights!

Typical freeway, full or trees and dense greenery

Typical street of this area. Very dense greenery and trees all around

We visited the Washington Adventist University.
My uncle Jose Chavanz came here for Graduate School when I was a small child. He sent pictures of him and his family in this very campus to us in Central America. He was the first from our family to ever come to the US. After he finished his studies he went back to Central America and I remember him talking about this place. Back then it was called Columbia Union college.

Sligo SDA Church. Always hear about the Sligo church and had never been there. Had friends at Andrews that talked about this church as one of the churches with the most members.
This church is on the campus of the Washington Adventist University.
