Washington

I did a LOT of wondering in Washington. Unfortunately the main stretch between Capital Hill and the Lincoln memorial was covered in snow, and all the 'reflecting pools' were iced over. I believe its a lot prettier in other seasons.

I did a tour of the Washington Monument, Capitol Hill and the Air and Space Museum. All three were excellent. I also made it to the Lincoln Memorial, the National Botanical Garden, the Supreme Court and Arlington Cemetery.

Here's a pic of Lincoln in his chair:

And lastly (thank the lord), Arlington Cemetery:

As everything is government run here, its all free. The down side is that it all closes at 5pm. I didn't have enough time to get into the cemetery for a proper look. Apparently its really worth a wander. Next time maybe :>
