The White House

On Wednesday I left sunny Orlando on a plane to Washington, DC to spend 4 days touring the city.  During my short time there I managed to see 6 museums, 3 art galleries and 11 monuments.  It was a easy city to navigate and my hotel was only a block from the National Mall.  Days started early and envolved a lot of walking but with the amount of coffee shops dotted along the streets it was easy to keep my energy up.  The White House was a lot smaller then what I thought it would be, but it was still impressive.  I had to fight the school groups to get that shot because when one school group left it seemed like another one showed up and took over.  My map I had of the city is covered in check marks with all the museums and monuments I did.  But there is still so many other ones I need to do.  I guess they will have to wait till my next trip.  That's all for now!

from Florida with love,
