Walking Around DC, Day 2

Today started back at Pentagon City Mall.

Brianna had been having iPod issues. God blessed and Apple simply replaced the device --- sweeeet!

From the mall we headed to the Library of Congress. It had started to sprinkle, but nothing bad.

Inside, the architecture and design are incredible. It is also great to see the two Bibles, the Great Bible and the Gutenberg. 

As we walked from the LOC to the SCOTUS, there is a great view of the Capitol. 

The SCOTUS is under renovation. They are whitening the marble.



Lunch was at Shophouse. It is the little brother of Chipotle Mexican Grill. There is only one location -- it is in DC. The food was pretty tasty.

On the way back from lunch, we stopped at the Navy Memorial. It is a pretty cool place.



We then went to the National Archives. Among other documents, we were able to see pages from the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights.

After the Archives, we walked the length of the Mall. At the Academy of Science, we found Einstein just sitting around.

Finally, we returned to the hotel. we came back early, but it was nice to relax.
