Vacation is over...

Monday morning marks the end of summer for me, as I will begin my training with the Triangle Coalition.  But, as you  know, I have used my free time in DC to the fullest.  So, I decided to make a list of all of the places I have visited thus far.

I am $1.5 million dollars tall, measured in $100 bills.

• Air and Space Museum
• Natural History Museum
• American History Museum
• National Museum of the American Indian
• Freer Gallery of Art
• United States Capitol
• Library of Congress
• Lincoln Memorial
• Jefferson Memorial
• Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial
• Korean Memorial
• Vietnam Memorial
• World War II Memorial
• FDR Memorial
• Union Station
• Postal Museum
• Bureau of Printing and Engraving
• Japanese American Memorial
• Chinatown

Still to come this week is the National Portrait Gallery and the National Zoo.  I am also planning on participating in some of the events marking the 50th anniversary of Dr. King's March on Washington.  

What is fantastic about everything I have visited thus far is that admission to every location is free.  Some locations, like the United States Capitol, you need to book ahead and get a ticket, but even those tickets are free.  There is so much to do and see here.  I am taking it all in!  But, I have not yet had an adventure worthy of earning my Ellie Badge.  That adventure is still to come...

My Ellie Badge, waiting to be earned.
