Mike, Chris, and I went to Washington DC for a quick over night visit. We walked all around the Mall the first day. It really is an awe inspiring place. All the Monuments and Museums are beautiful.
We walked 8 miles and my feet were sore!
Finally made it

We passed by in the late afternoon as we were heading back to our hotel.
Amazing how close the airport is. Looks like a plane is on final!
Seafood Market on the Potomac River.
Next to our hotel was a seafood market. Wish we could have taken some home.
The next day we went to the Air and Space Museum. Most of the exhibits were closed because of remodeling, darn. But what we did get to see was pretty awesome.
The Wright Brothers.
Aircraft hanging in the lobby.
Lindbergh’s plane

Glamorous Glennis. Yeah! Chuck Yeager
One of Amelia Earhart’s planes

Goodbye Washington! It was fun.
