Washington DC

We spent 2 days visiting Washington DC. July 7th & 8th. On the first day, we took the Metrorail into DC and then took the Tourmobile ...a sightseeing tram around to 40 major sites on and around the National Mall and in Arlington National Cemetery. We had a narrator on the tour who filled us in on little-known facts about DC. We were able to get on and off the tour. We got off at the Jefferson and Lincoln Memorials, the Korean and Viet Nam Veterans Memorials. We saw and took pictures from the tram of the White House, the Capitol, Washington Monument, and other federal buildings. We got off the tour in Arlington National Cemetery and visited JFK and Robert Kennedy's gravesites. We watched the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknowns and a wreath being placed there by veterans of WWII. We did so much walking we were really tired when we got back to the motorhome Saturday evening....but we got up the very next morning and took Metrorail back into DC to visit the Smithsonian. We spent most of the day checking out the National Air & Space Museum and the National Museum of Natural History. I have post only a few of 176 pictures I took in DC.
