We ate lunch of hot dogs and cokes on the streets of D.C. This day was cool and rainy..There is so much to see and do in D.C. We went to 5 different things the first day.. ( went to the top of Washington Monument... 555 '.... Engraving, Natural Science Museum, Portrait Gallery and Zoo. ( Saw the famous Pandas )... and on the second day, we rode all over the city on a tour bus so got to see over 20 major things.. including Arlington Cemetery, Kennedy's Eternal Flame, changing of the guards at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier... A LOT of WALKING!!!
This is my pedometer... Dr. says try to walk 10,000 steps/ day .. as you can see we walked everywhere on Thursday... even in the RAIN!!! I walked over 23,000 steps. I have NEVER walked that much before.... Was SO TIRED!!!! I should frame this picture...

Mom,
Glad to hear you are having a blast and keeping healthy to boot. Didn't you walk a lot when living in the D.R. ? I did!
We must be blogging at the same time. I have more pictures of our family that Sue Reber took when we met them on Saturday. She is going to e-mail them to us. Really good time and lots of pictures with her "good" digital camera at the Soo Locks. -kari
Hi Carole,
You should enlarge and frame the pedometer picture. Thats a lot of walking. Looks like you all were having a great time. Someday I will make it to D.C. Seems so interesting. Have fun.
