Washington, D.C.

I visited the turbo couple at Silver Spring, MD for thanksgiving (zig happened to be there, too). After enjoying a perfect homemade hot pot, we went to Washington, D.C. the next day. It was so crowded everywhere, from metro stations to museums. It made me feel even sicker when facing crazy drivers and policemen carrying guns...

The Washington Monument and the Reflecting Pool, as well as the Capitol Hill far behind and the National Museum of Natural History on the left (where we had lunch).


Another shoot.


The Lincoln Memorial and the National World War II Memorial.


The names of the States in the entablature of the Lincoln Memorial. Here goes Massachusetts, MDCCLXXXVIII (1788), when it became the sixth state to ratify the Constitution.


Squirrels everywhere. Here is one near the Reflecting Pool.


The White House and a Christmas tree.


Another Christmas tree in the Reagan airport.

I think the additions to Ronald Reagan Airport
Ronald Reagan Airport were of questionable architectural merit.
