We made our way to the Martin Luther King memorial, which was amazing, then continued on across the Kutz Bridge and through the park to the Washington Monument in the center of the National Mall. This is huge; it was the tallest structure in the World until the Eiffel Tower was built. On the way back we stopped to check out the World War II Memorial, covering the Atlantic and Pacific. A sombre yet amazing day.

Missed the cherry blossom trees; next time.
