Being There- Part Dos (is that how you spell it?)- Monday

Our first morning in D.C. was not my favorite. We had to get up pretty early and I am not an early person. We got up and made our way to the subway. It took forever to figure out how to get passes. We finally figured it out and we were on our way from our stop, which was right across from our hotel, Woodley Park/Zoo.

We stopped at the National Mall. The Lincoln Memorial is 2 miles from the Capitol Building! I had NO IDEA that it was that FAR!!!! Here's what we saw (not necessarily completely all through the whole building, but kind of from the outside)

• Washington Monument
• WW2 Memorial
• Lincoln Memorial
• Vietnam Memorial
• White House
• Capitol Building
• Smithsonians
• Library of Congress
• Supreme Court
• Potomac River

We walked ALL OVER tarnation (I just had to put that). So finally we decided to just find a place to eat because it was 2PM and we had not eaten. So we settled for the food court in the Ronald Raegan Office Building. Mom and I had Nachos. It was really good.

The subway ride back took forever and it was really crowded.

That night, we ate at Woodley Park Cafe. It was okay. I was glad when we got to the hotel and went to bed.
