Now for the pictures: first let me say I took SO many pictures! I definitely struggled picking the ones to post - and I may have got a little carried away : )
This is at Mt. Vernon - George Washington's home
The Capital Building
China Town! We ate at this super yummy restaurant Wok n Roll - it is in the exact location where Lincoln's assassination was planned, crazy huh. After our lovely dinner, as we were standing outside the door a rush of cop cars came and parked literally right next to us. They rushed into the liquor store next door - it was intense! And a little scary. And this picture does not do it justice
One day we rented bikes and rode them all around the Washington Mall (where all the monuments are). I love bike riding - and the monuments were of course amazing.
Sunday after church we walked around the temple. The Washington D.C temple is seriously so beautiful. I was in awe!
Oh and we also went to the Zoo - again so fun. I love this picture of the elephant so I had to include it.
