Washington DC 2010

We took advantage of the four day holiday weekend for a mini getaway to Washington DC. We had three full days to see some of the sights and we took in the Air and Space Museum, the Museum of Natural History, the National Zoo, and the various monuments and memorials. Of course, Norah's favorite things were none of these - she liked the hotel elevator, the escalators, and the subway. We only saw a tiny fraction of what DC has to offer, but still enjoyed ourselves and are eager for a return trip (which Norah requests daily).
