Washington, DC
Bill & Jane
April 15-17, 2005
We arrived the weekend after the peak cherry blossoms, but still enjoyed seeing plenty of trees with blossoms.  We visited many of the major sights including the Washington & Jefferson Monuments, the Navy Memorial and the Capitol Building.  We spent most of our time in the new Native American Museum, Natural History Museum and the American History Museum.  We enjoyed a delicious and unique lunch at the Native American Museum.  We were the guests of submarine shipmate David Kirkpatrick and his wife Flori.  Summary for the trip: Travel $0, Lodging $0, Food & Beverage $150, Renewing old friendships Priceless!
