WOW!! Everyone needs to visit Washington, DC. We spent the day exploring everything. We saw the Washington Memorial, Jefferson Memorial Vietnam Memorial, White House, Capitol Building...we saw it all. Unfortunately, we planned this trip kind of last minute and we did not have enough time to go on a tour of the White House, but we still saw it from the outside. Next time I go, I will plan a little but further ahead and get on a tour. We ended up walking over 24,000 steps today! That's a LOT of walking. It was a cloudy, drizzly and cool day, but we made it through. Lucky for us, the cherry blossoms are blooming! Yay!!
The Vietnam Memorial was a very emotional experience for Jeff. I think it hit him a lot harder that what he expected. He left a baseball for his brother Tom, as that is one of the activities they used to do together.
We toured all day, then met Jerry for supper. We ate right down the street from his house, so it was walking distance for us.
