We were hosted by our new best friend in Washington DC. With his expert guidance and mad parking skill we squeezed a ton of sight seeing into one day. We left the Dulles area hotel at 9 am and saw:
The Vietnam Memorial, The Korean War Memorial, The Lincoln Memorial, The WW II Memorial, The FDR Memorial (this is a fantastic tribute using, words, sculptures, water features and landscaping), The World War Memorial (WW I) We went to the top of the Washington monument - excellent views of the city!
We took a break and ate lunch at the food court in the "Old Post Office" building. Next it was up to the top of the tower in the "Old Post Office" for more views and the bells. We visited the National Archives and saw:
Magna Carta, The Declaration of Independence, All 4 pages of the Constitution, and The Bill of Right.
We made a drive by of the Capital Building and the visited the White House (well the lawn anyway) - the grandstands for the inauguration are under construction. Finally we visited the Jefferson Memorial and returned to Dulles Airport by 5:30!! Wow What a Day! It was great and we have pictures to prove we were there.
We are off to our Ethiopian Air Flight ttfn.
