I mean, like four-year-olds-worn-out-at-Disney-World-exhausted.
But that didn't stop us from getting up the next morning to do it all over again!
We hopped on the metro and away we went! We had a plan in mind for what we wanted to see, but lo & behold, we got to see so many things along the way.
Like the National Monument!
(still undergoing some structural damage repair from an earthquake back in 2011).
The Capitol Building
Ahhh...we never got to actually go inside...crazy, right? We didn't realize just how spread out so many places on our "to do" list were until we got there. Then we had to make a plan to explore D.C. by "areas" and just see as much as possible. Unfortunately, we just didn't get to see it all. But at least we have something new on our list for next time. :)
The Smithsonian Castle
The Department of the Treasury
A Gigantic City Block!
The Department of Agriculture
Two Gigantic City Blocks!
But we saw all of these things because we were on our way here...
The Museum of Natural History (a.k.a. the set of Night at the Museum 2)
And what else would you possible check out first but the dinosaurs??
Yikes! Would definitely NOT want to be around during the dino-age.
This counter of the current world population was fun to watch...
There were about 3 minutes between the above picture and this one...and in that time the world population grew by 234 people!
And I was SO excited to see this jewel!
The Hope Diamond *swoon*
Such a cool place to explore - glad it made "the list." :)
We did one other museum on day two, but I'll give a blog post all its own...because I'm not quite sure how to put words to it just yet. You'll see why soon enough.
Day 2...check!
