We're back. Rob and India met us in San Francisco and drove us home with our internal clocks three hours askew.
We have had an amazing "Big Adventure"!
(Will try to fill in the blanks here later from all the pics over on flickr.)

Cool DC bus driver
On Sunday we had planned to take a trip out to Mt Vernon but the tours were expensive and we were tired of rushing to see one more thing. We decided to use our Smartrip cards and ride the buses to explore some of DC. The drivers and bus riders were friendly and helpful wherever we went.
In the afternoon we went to the National Archives to see the original Declaration of Independence and Constitution.

Joyce buys strawberries
This was an impressive display of Virginia strawberries. Joyce bought a basket which we nibbled on through the morning.
Janet gives Joyce directions
Janet was a local resident we met at a Dupont Circle bus stop. She insisted we go up Massachusetts Ave to see all the embassy houses and get off to see the National Cathedral.
National Cathedral
We had not intended to go here but Janet who we met at a bus stop insisted. It is beautiful.
