Cardinals were everywhere!
I made it to the National Mall right as the weather was getting sinister...
...and I loved it!
This man is truly incredible
Right before the rain started.
I walked from the Lincoln Memorial to my brother's work and got a bit wet. We ate lunch together and then he showed me how to get to the White House.
From the White House, I walked to Ford's Theater. I missed the tour of the theater, but I was able to walk through the house where Lincoln died.

I made my way to the National Gallery of Art. After a quick nap in one of the 16th century exhibits, I made it to the sculptures and 18th-19th century art.

I took the metro from the National Mall to Eastern Market and met the group at Cava Mezzo where we ate delicious Mediterranean food. After dinner, we walked a few blocks to participate in an escape room. We had 45 minutes to solve the mystery of who stole what painting and how to get out of the locked room we were in. We finished at the buzzer!
