Well here begins our vacation fun. Day one we decided to visit the Holocaust museum in Washington DC. Its not really a kid friendly place to visit although there is one area called Daniels story where kids can walk thru the life of a little boy Daniel. You go thru his house all the way thru to when he entered a concentration camp to the end of the war. The kids can see and touch different objects like his bed, toys, etc and they have activities through out like finding objects Daniels hidden. It was pretty neat.
From the Holocaust museum we walked towards the Momument (or as I used to call it as a child "the big pencil". Took one quick look and then moved on. We stopped off to visit the World War II memorial on our way to the Jefferson memorial...and yes we are still walking! We did take a break to feed some ducks and watch a family of geese for a few minutes. The girls loved it....we had a hard time getting them away. At one point in time I was feeding them out crackers out of my hands. One got brave enough and went to grab some food from L's hand...the only problem was she didn't have anything in her hand so the goose just got a taste of her fingers. Of course they were both a little puzzled, L just kept looking at her hand and then back to the goose and the goose had the same expression of what is going on here, your suppose to be feeding me!
After pursuading the kids to leave we headed on over to the Jefferson memorial. Of course everyone was tired and cranky at this point but I did get a couple of quick snapshots that turned out good. So all in all it was a great day, except for the miles and miles of walking we did I think everyone had fun!
