We toured the White House, visited many monuments, a few museums, as well as the Arlington Cemetary. Ben was loaded and ready to tell me all about the history of each president and everything in between. I did alot of smiling and nodding :) He still amazes me with the knowledge that he retains. I mean, my knowledge consists of what accessories are in style for the season! The one thing I did learn is that you can NOT wear flats on concrete for 8 hours! We had to hit up Nordstrom and buy me some Toms for Day 2!
Below is a little snapshot of our trip. Enjoy!
Ben has worn this bracelet since 2001 when he was in the ROTC. It has the name of a MIA soldier from the Vietnam War. We found his name at the Vietnam Memorial.
