We finished this up then headed home. We were museumed out or we would have hit the American Indian Museum.
Wednesday we headed home - detouring to Fairy Stone State Park to check out the campground. Nice place, but really a little too far for us.
All in all DC was good. Too rainy, cold and crowded to be great. If I did it over, I would skip the things we have done elsewhere - the Zoo (been to lots), the Aquarium (very so so) and even the Natural History Museum. I would take that time and spend at the American History Museum, American Indian Museum and National Archives. And the Capital Visitors Center. Things you cannot see or do anywhere else.
So we left plenty undone - which means we can return sometime when it is not peak tourist season.
Hannah's camera battery died so she stole my camera. She liked the look of this (american history museum)


Some of the cool minerals at the natural history museum

The hope diamond - hard to get to with the crowd and low lights and rotating display..

Another cool display

The final stop on our DC tour...
