DC Day Two

Second day in DC went pretty well. It was cold by South Carolina standards but not bad for Canadians. We started at the zoo with a friend of Jane's and his five year old daughter. She and Isabelle took about 20 seconds to become fast friends and spent the morning running around and being five year olds. All in all a good morning.

Lunch was near the hotel and then we were off to the Postal Museum. Jane enjoyed it (obviously) and Isabelle and I had a good time. Isabelle made a few postcards and saw lots of neat stuff. A quick walk near the capital building and down Pennsylvania Avenue to do some shopping and it was time for supper. We did walk by the Verizon Center just before the hockey game. Supper was great. We ate at a spot right by the hotel. We may even break our rule (never go to the same place twice when visiting a different city) and go back tomorrow.

Speaking of tomorrow, well it should be big too. Air and Space, Natural History, American History, along with a walk by the White House and down the mall to the Washington Memorial and the Lincoln Memorial. I would also like to see the Vietnam Memorial. It doesn't look like we will get to Arlington National Cemetery but maybe next time. It should be a nice day, I hope it gets a little warmer though.
