Walk Around Town
Saturday...
Today we walked...about 4 miles...for about 8 hours. Boy, are we tired. We took the Metro Blue Line from Foggy Bottom to the Smithsonian. We went first to the Castle, then worked our way East along the Mall. We stopped at the National Air & Space Museum for several hours. Then we took a break at the Capitol Reflection Pool to watch the anti-war demonstrators get arrested on the steps of the Capitol. Then we stated back. Didn't make any stops on the North side of the Mall. By the time we got to the Museum of Natural History, it was closing time. Will try again tomorrow. We continued along the Mall stopping at the Washington Monument. Then around the Wash. Monument to the World War II Memorial. We walked along the Reflecting Pool toward the Lincoln Memorial then to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. We walked up 21st past the Department of State, up Virginia Ave., then up 23rd to eat at the Froggy Bottom Pub on K st. Good, well priced food. Chris had a bacon burger and I had a pastrami sub with onions & cheese. Then...finally back to the cozy Best Western on New Hampshire Ave. for a good rest in preparation for another busy day.
