DC

Got some "real" shots today of the *stuff* DC is symbolized by. No, not slimy, corrupt, selfish politicians. The monuments. I probably have 25 of the Jefferson Memorial, because we kept driving around it.

We had our day at the Holocaust Museum (more on that later), then did a drive by tour of DC. We did get out at the Jefferson and FDR memorials. We saw the back of the Lincoln Memorial, got a glimpse of the White House and saw the Capital, and passed the WWII Memorial.

WWII Memorial (Taken through a bus window; the bus was moving)


This is probably my favorite picture -- The Jefferson Memorial


Again, through a bus window (dirty) and the bus was moving -- Capital Hill


Have you ever met a Holocaust survivor? Until today, my answer was "no." This is Regina, a lovely lady with a quick wit and wonderful sense of humor. Her story, though desperate and sad, left you with hope simply because she made it through.
