Today we began our adventures by acquiring tickets to the Washington Monument and the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. We covered the 360 view of the Bureau before finally finding the entrance. There we saw the machinery and equipment that prints more money in a few minutes than a lot of us, including Mr. K, will make in a lifetime. Afterwards we explored the World War II memorial, viewing the pillars that represented all fifty four states and territories. The "high point" of the morning was the top of Washington Monument. The view there is amazing, provided the day isn't too cloudy. Being caught up in the excitement, Zack was exclaiming how glad he was that he had so much extra memory. However, at that very moment his camera began flashing "Memory Full." We're still laughing.
For lunch we stopped at the Stars and Stripes Cafe in the American History Museum. After an hour and a half touring there (which wasn't long enough), we moved to the Air and Space/Native American museums. We finished the day at Ford's Theater and the house he died in. Oh yes, and we went to Fuddruckers for supper.

Hi Braden and everyone! You didn't happen to find any bills looking for a home or a good cause at the mint, did you? Also, I bet you are all feeling a little like Zack's camera about now..."Memory Full" Glad you're still having fun, we are too! See you soon, Mom and Hallie
