Here Jameson is hanging out in the hotel room. We spent 3 weeks in it, it almost started feeling like home... almost. Also note Jamo's awesome road rash he got when he had a seizure and face planted at a BP station in Ohio. Ow.
Flippin' Pizza. That's what's it's called. I have now had some amazing New York style pizza. It was yummy.
We ate out A LOT! Like, pretty much every lunch and dinner. Oy, we got super fat, as you can tell...
Me at the National Geographic Museum. They had a Da Vinci exhibit and it was awesome.
Umm, a plaque, shield thing?
We went to the 6 flags there in Maryland. It was slightly ghetto but had a few fabulous rides. The superman, ride of steel, was my favorite. After that, I think it would have to be these tea cups. I haven't been on a tea cup ride in like 10 years. It was amazing. I'm not sure it was Jamo's favorite. I made us spin like crazy fast. The other riders commented on our speed. We are awesome.
So we ate at this place called umm... something? Anyway, it had amazing mexican food. We ate there twice and got the same exact thing. It was a some sort of steak fajitas. But they didn't have all the slimy peppers and onions and stuff that they usually have. They were AWESOME. So good.
Here is the beautiful meat. I want some more.
We were walking around DC one day, trying to find the white house I think. There was a little park with this statue in it. I forget his name, but a metro station was named after him. Furragot, I think?
The White House... not much explanation needed.
Jamo and I in front of the white house. We are cool and can officially call ourselves Americans.
Lafayette Park. It's across the street from the white house. They had lots of statues and stuff there.
I've never seen one of these in real life. It made me want to play chess, which takes a lot.
Another famous dude. There were a lot of them and I can't remember them all.
The city.
We played a lot of games while there. We would sit on our bed, pull out the games and turn on HGTV and get dinner and Cold Stone. It was awesome.
One of our adventures led us to a modern art museum at the Smithsonian. In case you're wondering what it is... it's a big old square of pollen. Yup, it's art.
The sculpture gardens had some interesting things. This is some sort of glass room thing.
The Smithsonian Castle. It had famous people jewelry in it when we were there. Also had lots of info about the Smithsonian.
The air and space museum. These are rockets? Really tall ones...
Jamo looking at the displays.
A lunar lander like they used on the apollo 11 mission.
7-11 outside the zoo. Hotdog shaped hamburgers? Yes, please.
I love the meer cats. They were adorable and I could watch them all day. They're like sea otters on land.
Patrick Star? He looks like he's passed out and it made me giggle a little.
Jellies!
The sign outside the National Zoo.
Triceratops. There were so many cool dinosaur bones, this is just one of my pictures...-
Giant sea turtle. Yup, it was also awesome. I love turtles.
Cave men... hehe.
The Hope Diamond.
Outside the Museum of Natural History.
Inside the library of congress. It was a gorgeous building! They search you on the way out to see if you're stealing books, silly. Funny thing is that I had a library book in my bag for reading on the metro and they searched the sucker, lol. I'm pretty sure they don't have Hunger Games in their library.
Yup, naked gods in fountain form...
We did a session at the Washington D.C. temple. It really isn't as big as it looks or what I thought it would be. Overall I think the St. Louis temple wins, especially in the pretty department. Of course, I might be bias.
Supreme Court Building.
The Capitol building.
Sheri and the Capitol.
We went to the botanical garden that was part of the nation mall. It had lots of pretty plants and flowers. These are just a few.
Some sort of plant girl playing a something or drinking a something...
Jamo in the little bamboo forest thingy.
Washington Monument.
Me in front of it.
Jamo in front of it.
Here is the WWII memorial.
Everyone was putting there feet in the little pool there. My feet hurt SO BAD I wanted to cry. So this ended up being one of my favorite places :).
The Vietnam memorial.
At this point in the trip my camera died. So there are no photos from the Lincoln memorial except on Jameson's phone. And then my feet hurt so bad I didn't want to do anything else. We then made the trek back home.

I like all of the postage stamps you got there. Did you take any big pictures? Anyway, I'm super envious. Someday we will go to Washington and be awesome like you.
we did, but seeing as it takes like an hour to scroll through these anyway, I made them small. Plus, my screen is huge so they don't look very small to me :).
