And then, the US Archives - archives on everything about the US, from its Constitution to it Ammendments, Bill, history of the presidents of US, and even classified data on the Titanic, Apollo 13 and the death of John F Kennedy.
Mural on the wall of Rotunda - one depicting the Declaration of Independence which has Thomas Jeffersen presenting a draft of the Declaration to John Hancock, and the second showing The Constitution of the US showing James Madison offereing the final draft of the Constituion to George Washington.
The Charters of Freedom
Ending the day was a Chinese dinner at Chinatown.
She had a craving for Chicken Rice the day before and so ordered Chicken Rice with Char Siew. The portion was super huge, but super not nice as it was really salty.
After dinner, there were more sight seeing - all because 2 days were not enough to travel around.
George Mason Statue
Washington Memorial - Night View
Thomas Jefferson Memorial
6 people squeezed into one small motel room
Washington Monument - Day View
The monument has 2 colours because it was built one third way, then stopped, and later completed years after.
Armed forces seals from the WWII Memorial
Lincoln War Memorial
The Awakening - An interesting sculpture that has the giant in the mud (The horny devil's favourite)
Arlington Cemetry - The place where all the soldiers who died in the war were burried
Iwo Jima War Memorial
They were very lucky to have come on the day of the 'Sunset Parade' where the Marine Corp soldiers performed and did a colours ceremony.
It was a sight to behold.
And finally, to end our DC trip 1, we visited the Union Station.
And signing this post off with my most favourite part of my trip.
