Washington DC
August 13 - 15, 2004

Flew to Washington DC for a wedding in Annapolis, Maryland. Flew in Friday evening and went to dinner in DC and drove around the Mall to see all the Capitol at night. Saturday we went into Annapolis for some good seafood and a friend's wedding. Sunday we bought tickets on the Tourmobile in DC and rode that from Union Station out to the memorials and back. Unfortunately we didn't have time to tour any of the Smithsonian buildings, but that just means we'll have to go back!
