WE DECIDED TO DO A 2 DAY BUS TOUR OF DC'S MAIN ATTRACTIONS WE TOOK THE BUS MOBILE FOR $35.00 IT WAS GREAT AND WELL WORTH IT. FOR THIS DAY WE HAD THE LITTLE GIRL SHEREE BABYSITS AND CK , SHEREE & I. WE WERE UP EARLY TO TAKE THE BUS TO THE METRO. THE METRO IS LESS IN THE LONG RUN AND YOU DONT HAVE TO FIGHT DRIVING IN TRAFFIC AND PAYING FOR PARKING. WE TOOK IT TO ARLINGTON CEMETARY THAT IS WHERE WE STARTED FROM WE WERE GOING TO DO THAT ON SAT WITHOUT THE KIDS. WE WAITED FOR OUR BUS AFTER WE BOUGHT OUR TICKETS. WE THEN HEADED INTO DC SEEING MANY OF THE SIGHTS ALONG THE WAY TO OUR DESTINATION.WE SAW THE JEFFERSON MEMORIAL, BEUREU OF ENGRAVINGS,US HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL, AND THEN NATIONAL AIR & SPACE AT THE SMITHSONIAN. IT WAS SO NEAT TO SEE ALL OF THE DIFFERENT AIRPLAINES, ROCKETS, FIGHTER PLAINES, TEC. THE WRIGHT BROTHERS PLAINES, THE WAR PLAINES, . WE THEN WENT INTO MCDONALDS IN THE SAME BUILDING THE LARGESONE I HAVE EVER SEEN. THEN WE WERE BACK ON OUR BUS AND SAW MORE THINGS ON OUR WAY TO OUR NEXT DESTINATION. MUSEUM OF AMERICAN INDIANS, LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, THE CAPITAL, BOTH SIDES OF IT,UNION STATION, THE POSTAL MUSEUM,NATIONAL GALLORY OF ART,NATIONAL ARCHIVES,MESUEM OF NATURAL HISTORY,MESUEM OF AMERICAN HISTORY,WHITE HOUSE & WHITE HOUSE VISITOR CENTER,WW2 MEMORIAL, VIETNAM MEMORIAL,LINCOLN MEMORIAL & AT SOME POINT THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT AND FINALLY AT THE NATIONAL HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL. THAT WAS PRETTY ENTERSTING. WE COULD ONLY TAKE PICTURES OUTSIDE. IT WAS VERY MOVING AND SAD TO SEE WHAT SO MANY PEOPLE WENT THROUGH IN THE HAULOCAUST.
THEN WE WERE DONE AND BACK ON OUR BUS TOUR AGAIN TO HEAD BACK TO THE ARLINGOTN CEMETARY TO TAKE THE METRO BACK TO HOME. VERY GOOD DAY AND TIRING.
