We took the metro into DC. Our hotel was in the suburbs, close to the IBM facility where Ron was working. The metro was convenient, inexpensive, and quick.
The Washington Monument was covered in scaffolding, so that wasn't very attractive.
We only toured one Smithsonian, the Museum of American History. On the first floor, we were taken back in time and saw how rural America has changed over the last century and a half. There were amazing hand tools, horse-drawn 'things', conestoga wagons, carriages, and weird bicycles. On the second floor, we saw the First ladies of the USA. My favorite was the Gown Gallery.
I enjoyed our visited to the Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial (photo below). I love the sound of running water and this memorial has miniature waterfalls. |
