Day 3 in DC

On Day 3 we visited the Capitol building - it was a better tour than we expected.  Ronald Reagen's statue has a piece of the Berlin Wall at the base.  And the sound in the old chamber is really great.  

We walked from the Capitol to the Lincoln Memorial.  That is a good bit of exercise!
Then we went by the Vietnam War Memorial.
That night someone threw green at Lincoln but only hit the pedestal.

We played "Night at the Museum" at the Air and Space Museum and marveled at the accomplishments
of Amelia Earhart

Amelia danced with the Degas sculpture in the movie. 

And the dinosaur ran all over the museum chasing bones for Larry.
This was lots of fun since we watched the movies with the granddaughters.

We also scoped out the International Spy Museum for the grandkids, whom we hope to bring to DC some day.  Here the Strategist tries to find the enemy camp on the GPS.  

A trip is not complete without some of the local wildlife. Since we have lived in Kenya, we are very conscious
of live animals.  This squirrel made his home on the Washington Mall.
