Washington DC

The day didn't start very well, I think we were both thinking 'we made it through our life so far without seeing it maybe we can finish without seing it'. When we got to the first metro rail station, of five parking lots, every one was absolutely full. After driving through all lots we asked the station manager where we could park and he suggested driving toward town to the next station. Here is a picture of me standing in that station - happy again. (It looks like I need to start sucking my tummy in for pictures)











It was raining off and on during the day so we spent most of our time in Smithsonian Museums. We started in the Air and Space museum. This is a picture on a lunar lander that was never used. Those they used they left behind. We then went to the Natural History museum and saw lots of stuffed animals/bids/insects/fish and skeletons of prehistoric things.









Finally we went to the museum of American History but we got tired before we got through just a tiny bit of it. The jeep in the picture is in the World War II section. Truth be known, we just saw a small part of each of the museums we visited. Any one of them would take days to see and read everything. We're on our way back today and hope it doesn't rain as much so we can see the outside memorials and displays.
