The family sans me, went to visit the DC monuments and tourist sites. I have to explain that this is a long walk and not for the faint of heart. The first time we wen to see the monuments, Nathan has a tantrum and refused to walk back to the Metro. The second time they all made it through and by the last time with my mother they were masters at the walk. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for Dartavious. I understand his complaints but apparently the humor of the situation was lost on him. He fell out
This time, they did the whole shabang in one day. Pretty impressive!! They started off in front of the Smithsonian and walked down to the Washington monument, next the World War II memorial, then the Vietnam Veteran's wall, to the the Lincoln Memorial, next to the Korean War memorial. The then headed to catch a glimpse of the White house and then go see the Ford's Theater. All in all, they had a wondrously busy and eventful sight seeing day.
