We got up bright and early and got on the DC Metro Subway ready for another big day. We arrived during the peak of the cherry blossoms, but before the festival, so we were fortunate to avoid many of the expected crowds. We walked everywhere that day. Our feet paid a heavy price, but we saw a lot of great stuff: The Smithsonian Museums of Natural History, American History and Space and Technology, the National Archives with the Constitution, Bill of Rights, etc. and close-up looks at the Washington Monument and Capitol Building, not to mention the worlds largest McDonalds! Almost all the stuff in DC is FREE, but the motels and food seem to make up for it. I am not complaining, an expensive cheeseburger is a small price to pay for this educational, patriotic and emotionally impressive experience!
