Washington DC part 1

It's been a long, long time since I posted anything, mostly because I spent the winter taking a french class which took all of my free time. Over the Memorial Day weekend we went to Washington DC. It was fun but really hot and steamy.

The White House, this was with a telephoto lens, they keep people pretty far away.

WWII Memorial.

Candle light vigil at the Wall.

The moon raising over the Lincoln Memorial.


Lincoln Memorial from the WWII Memorial. The reflecting pond is current closed to rebuild it.


We spent an afternoon at the Zoo, it was so hot and so crowded it was hard to enjoy. This is a red panda. the giant pandas along with most other animals were hiding in the shade to stay cool.




We checked in the hotel, parked the car and didn't move it again until we headed home. Spent the whole weekend traveling around on the DC Metro.
