Our choice of food after our long train ride and several
naps was ironically pizza. Our little
pizza parlor, named Flippin Pizza, boasted of serving nothing artificial with
no added sugar or oil. I am no food
critic and readily enjoyed my two slices of pepperoni and ironically Brooklyn
pizza.

Our real adventures, however, began today with our bus tour
of our nation’s capital. Our first stop
was the Capital Building.

After our tour of the Capital Building, we took an
underground corridor to the Library of Congress.
 |
| The picture speaks for itself |
 |
| Something to ponder... |
 |
| And speaking of beauty... |
Our next stop was space, 'the final frontier'...
 |
| Glad it's only an hour car ride...don't want it to be too long |
 |
| Hmm...did we take a wrong turn back there? |
 |
| Yup...we definitely did... |
Don't worry...we found our way back from the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum and found our way to the Washington Monument.
 |
| The Washington Monument with rain clouds in the distance |
 |
| The White House, the boys and I before it rained. |
 |
| After the rain...we were...well, soaked! |
And so we returned to the hotel, ate at a Chinese restaurant and some of them swam. Until new adventures...
