if you only had a few hours in DC...what would you do before you went home?

Last DC post! Wahoo! On Jakes and I last day in DC, we only had 2 hours before we had to head to the airport. Jake really wanted to go to the zoo, so thats right where we went! With the sunshine out, the animals were all so active! It was awesome! Check out our video of some pretty neat animals!

Here are some pictures we took at the Zoo :)

After the zoo, we went back to our hotel to check out and grab our stuff to get to the airport.

Waiting at the bus stop to take us to the airport

Got Aunti Anns preztles for a snack at the airport!

Airplane reading material. I am still working on finishing these books!

We got home from a long day of traveling at 11pm, so we stopped and picked up some Wingers to eat! We were so hungry and ready for some delicious food! DC was an awesome trip! I hope to go back soon!

Mr. Picasso

In DC I got to spend some time going to some neat museums. I went to the National Gallery of Art and was surprised and happy to see they had a Picasso section set up on display!

I like to walk through museums. They are neat.

Picassos self portrait of himself.

Picassos work is not my favorite, but I do think his skills were amazing! All the techniques he did and structure in his drawings are amazing. I am super impressed the things he was able to do and create without modern technology. So, I do think he is a great artist, I think I just like paintings of landscapes for my home more :)

When I left the museum there was a cute squirrel running around. He was so excited he found some food! What a cutie ;)

Hot Dog Vendors, National Archives Party, Washington Monument, Capitol, Mr. Lincoln and some Sushi!

One thing on my to do list in DC was eat from a hot dog vender! On Friday afternoon, I got to do that! It was great!

I also got to go in the National Archives and check it out! Jakes work there was having a party and they were so sweet and wanted me to come! It was awesome! They were all so kind and neat!

Yummy treats! I loved meeting everyone Jake gets to work with when he comes to DC. It was great!
After the party, there was still some work hours, so I went back to the Smithsonian History Museum to walk around. I love that place. When everyone was off work, we met at the Sports Grill for dinner. It was fun to get to talk to Jakes coworkers more and get to know them! Friday was a rainy day all afternoon, so I was so glad when the rain cleared up at dinner! We sat outside and enjoyed some nice weather!

Eating another cupcake......

After dinner, Jake and I ventured off on a walk around DC. We were sad it was our last day there and wanted to try and get everything in we could!

The Capitol

A beautiful sun setting as we were walking to the Mall.

Washington Monument. What a beautiful Sunset! I could not stop taking pictures  it started to change! It was so beautiful out!

World War 2 Memorial

I love AZ. I will always have AZ pride :)

There was a lot of construction going on, and no water infront of Mr. Lincolns.

Lincoln Memorial

Hi Abe.

After looking at some great sites, Jake and I went to Georgetown to get some Georgetown cupcakes! They were sooo good and the best!

Then we walked back to Dupont Circle and went to UNI sushi for a midnight snack! It was so delicious! We were not disappointed! It was so great! Then we got packed and ready to leave the following afternoon. We were both sad packing our things. Time flys by so fast on trips.
