Inside the Smithsonian we saw some amazing things, but some fun stuff too. The ruby slippers from "The Wizard of OZ," the first Apple computer, the Wright Brothers Airplane, hundreds of stuffed animals, even a 12 ton elephant! There was even a moon rock that we got to touch!
DC is a city that is wonderful to visit, but most every thing was open from just 10-5, giving us only 7 hours a day to see so much. I would like to return and see some of the things we missed, the National Art Gallery, a few more Smithsonians and a visit to Mount Vernon.
I saw a statue outside the National Archives with these words engraved on the base: "The Price of Freedom in Eternal Vigilance." If that is so, then maybe the price of eternal freedom is supernatural vigilance! Please pray for us on our travels and that we may be a blessing to the various churches we are visiting
