The return of the museum junkie
I got back from DC the other day. For those out of the loop, I went to Washington DC for a weekend. Now I'm back.
It was a good trip. E. had never really been for more than three hours before, so to say she got a comprehensive tour would be an understatement. I've included a list of the sights; not a bad list considering almost all of it was in a span of three days. The list is really for my own journaling as much as anything, but if you're interested, I've included links with a little more detail for some of the not-so-obvious stuff.
Iwo Jima Memorial
Thomas Jefferson Memorial
Library of Congress
Hirshhorn Gallery specifically for the Hiroshi Sugimoto exhibit
National Gallery & Sculpture Garden
Vietnam Memorial
Lincoln Memorial
Korean War Memorial
