>Capitol City Birthday Weekend Extravaganza: Day 2 Part 1

March 23, 2010 by Kara Leave a Comment

>On Friday, we did the touristy thing and took the Metro into the Smithsonian station.

Cindy – being very Asian. Love her.

Onto our first stop – the National Museum of Natural History. Everybody loves a little nature.

Now for a respite from all the kiddos and because the rain had “let up,” we decided to take our chance and walk the Mall down to the monuments. Yeah, big mistake, HUGE Mistake. So much for that break in the weather. We were able to snap a few in the dry on our way to Washington:

Somebody was a little grumpy gills thanks to all the rain.

Pay your respects to a veteran. You have your freedom thanks to the men and women who died. 

A glance at ole Abe in the distance. That distance is very deceiving. 

And I leave you there with an idea of our next stop for the day. Just too many things packed into one day for one blog. We did a lot of walking. In fact, I bought a new pair of Clarks’ at the mall on Thursday in anticipation.
