DC to Philly

Woke up for our last morning in DC with just a couple of last places to visit. We had to see Arlington Cemetery and the Smithsonian Air and Space annex at the airport. Love both of these stops and couldn't wait for the family to see them.



RFK gravesite


JFK Gravesite


Tomb of unknown soldier


One of the kids favorite attractions. A poster for the upcoming Harry Potter Movie.


Space shuttle


Enola Gay - dropped first atomic bomb on Japan.

We stopped by Gettysburg on the way to Philly. Pretty nice new building but everything was a rip off. They wanted $22 for an audio tour CD. The CD at Yorktown was $4. We didn't have much time or energy so we really didn't see much. We arrived at our campsite and setup camp around 9 EDT. We were stunned to find ants all over the tent trailer and a pop exploded in the fridge. Not a good start to the night. We got it cleaned up though and here we are at almost 11 pm waiting fir laundry to finish. Tomorrow it's into town to see the liberty bell, statehouse and mint. It's then off to NY.

  1. Everything sounded awesome except for the $$ at Gettysburg, the ants & the explosion. That Harry Potter poster looks fantastic. Will you be seeing the movie while on the trip? NY should be fun. We are loving your blogs.
