Washington DC


A few pictures from our trip to Washington DC. We had a great time and saw a lot of monuments and memorials. Cole especially enjoyed the Air and Space museum where we saw the Spirit of St. Louis and the actual Wright Bros. plane. You know the one, it was the first manned flight. The Natural History Museum was way too crowded. We had a private tour of the Capitol which was nice.

I did enjoy the marathon, just enjoyed it a little longer than I wanted to.

One thing about Washington, there seems to be a severe lack of signage for driving and the subway. I swear, the Tokyo subway system is easier and more intuitive that Washington's and that's even for someone who doesn't read Japanese.

Cool pictures of DC. Sorry the marathon didn't go as well as you wished; been there many times. But you learn so much about yourself in each and every marathon and you'll come back fighting stronger next time.

Congrats!

btw, I enjoy reading up on your blog!
