DC Trip

Finally, here are some pictures from our trip to DC. It really takes a long time to upload pictures, so I couldn't come close to uploading them all. Hope you enjoy.
My niece Eleanor on her way to the National Zoo with Jess and I.

A tiger looking around.

Eleanor chillaxin' after a day at the zoo. Someone commented that she looked like the happiest baby he'd ever seen.

This is the inside of the National Building Museum. This is where the first indoor Inaugeral Ball was held, and there has been one held here ever since.


Jess in front of the Warld War II Memorial.


The White House.

This is the Space Shuttle Enterprise. It was huge.


This is a Soviet Mig-21f

This is the SR-71 Blackbird. Fastest Jet that we know of. It goes upwards of Mach 3 and can outrun missiles. Primarily it was used for recon before it was retired.


That's me and Eleanor, my niece outside of the Smithsonian Air & Space Expansion.
