On the plane on our way! |
Our view from our window in Philly |
Independence House, where they signed The Declaration of Independence |
We ran 3 miles one night to see the Rocky statue! |
The stairs Rocky ran up |
Downtown Philly |
The famous clock tower |
The beautiful cherry blossoms. They were every where in Philly. |
Liberty Bell |
50 million coins a day are made here! |
Reading under a tree, waiting for Dave to get out of his conference. It was perfect weather! |
In Philadelphia, world famous for their philly cheesesteak sandwiches. |
We made it to DC! (a metal tree behind us...) |
Smithsonian, they had the largest museums, it was incredible. |
The funnest thing we did.... took a tour of DC on segways!! |
The Capitol |
Lincoln Memorial |
Washington Monument |
White House, (we actually saw the Presidents Helicopter coming in at night) |
We took a jog at night, to see the sights at night. It was super cool to see it all at night. |
The next set of pictures is all the World War 2 memorials. Both my Grandpas served in this war. |
The unknown soldiers graves. They are on constant guard and do a changing of the guard and solute every 30 min. |
It was such a great, fun, interesting, educational, relaxing trip!! |

I loved going to all those sights after my mission. George town and Camden fields was fun to see to. Love all the pics. Looks like you had a great time!!!
Wow...I feel educated just reading that post. Lincoln memorial gives me chills and I've never even seen it in person. I've always wanted to go to the Smithsonian too. Love the Rocky pictures...you and Dave are the most adorable couple :)
ADORABLE couple. I loved all the awesome pictures what a great country we live in!!! I actually shed a few tears sees the monuments and memorials, such a great spirit that presides in our country's capital. How neat you could go and see and experience these great landmarks.
