Here we go with day 3 of our time here in DC ~ We are just about exhausting ourselves with all the walking we are doing and believe me no matter how prepared you are it's a lot! Like I said before wear comfy shoes and drink lots of water!

| Carousal across the street in the park |
Our time today was spent at two museums and just walking around and taking in the sites. Believe me that took up all of our day. The first one we visited was the Smithsonian Castle. With over a dozen Smithsonian Museums in Washington DC, one of the most
interesting is the Castle.
The Smithsonian Castle houses the Smithsonian Information Center and
administrative offices but was once the original museum. There is a cute cafe in it and the architecture is by far the most interesting and it is just gorgeous. The Castle has spectacular gardens and across the street there is an old fashion carousal..
The Castle is an architect delight ~ an amazing building!

| Museum of Natural History |
After "The Castle" we were off to the National Museum of Natural History ~ all I can say is WOW. We saw dinosaurs, minerals, rocks, animals, the the largest diamond "The Hope Diamond" & mummies. It took us all day to see both of these museums because we read everything and try to see everything ~ lol lol. Three days into DC and we are tiring out... so much to see & do and like I said before you would need a month to do it all. So we have picked & chose what we wanted to see the most.

| Night in the Museum |
I could only think about the movie Night in the Museum... Did you see it? Where the animals and displays came to life at night after hours. It was in my mind all the time we were there.
Well once again because I feel the need to share with you my photos of inside the museum I am making another slide show for your enjoyment. I sure hope I am not boring you to death with all my photos!
Have Fun, Travel Safe & Stay Healthy!!!
