Exploring our Nation's Capital Everyone should pay a visit to our Nation's Capital at least once and most of us have done this visit as young students on a class trip. This was the case for me on my very first visit back in the late 70's. It would be more than 20 years before I return to this city and I've seem to returned at least once a year for the past three years. It's a fantastic city to explore on foot. I'm glad that I've had the opportunity to see this city as an adult and love visiting on weekend jaunts.
The musuems are world class there is always something new to explore for all those history buffs out there. |

life is a record of memories and aspirations; jan and feb 2007, transitted via IAD to take Mother to her country of birth, a sweet sour journey, her last but i think meaningful one ;-))) | gilabrand Wed Dec 5, 2007 19:32 UTC
I missed the American history museum for lack of time. Maybe I'll make it on the next visit. You make it sound interesting. | Nemorino Mon Oct 29, 2007 22:09 UTC
I visited the air and space museum decades ago and was highly impressed. As I said in one of my Paris tips, my father was in the crowd that greeted Charles Lindbergh at the end of his transatlantic solo flight in the Spirit of St. Louis. |
