Today after church I met up with Liz to explore parts of the Smithsonian. Ironically, I got on at Dupont Circle in the same car as she was already riding. What an awesome coincidence!
We got off at the Smithsonian and then decided to go to the Air and Space Museum. No matter how many times I go there, I do not get sick of looking at the exhibits. We only wanted to check out the space part of the museum so after walking around there for a few hours we grabbed lunch at the amazing McDonald's at the end of the museum.
From there we walked around the outdoor sculpture garden at the Smithsonian on our way to the World War II Memorial. Liz had never seen this memorial before so we decided to check it out. It was a beautiful day and there were many people flying kites between the Washington Monument and the WWII memorial. This is the third of fourth time I've seen the memorial and I think I like it more every time I see it. It was also appropriate coming the day after the anniversary of D-Day.
After leisurely resting among the trees outside the memorial, we walked to the White House and then around the area surrounding the famous residence. Now I am back here at the house thinking about Monday...
We'll see how this week goes...
