Washington DC

This is mainly going to be a picture post. 
The highlights of the trip were the cute squirrels and the Lincoln Memorial.
The lowlights were walking several miles a day and getting little sleep...and maybe learning a little something.


Once we realized how friendly the squirrels were, we ended up grabbing some peanuts at Five Guys and feeding them to the squirrels.
