A Bike Ride


Yesterday was a beautful day. So, we decided to take our bikes into D.C. and take a ride. We took Flat Hannah with us. You can look at her pictures below.

Before we got on our bikes, we walked over the bridge to the Roosevelt Island (since bikes are not allowed). We took some pictures there. It is a pretty fun island with different trails to walk through. But, we just went to the memorial. This is a picture of Roosevelt's hand. Andrew took it. I thought it was pretty cool.


This is the Vietnam War Memorial. Once again, Andrew took this picture. I thought it was pretty neat with the Washington Monument reflection in the wall. It is amazing how many people died in that war. It is pretty overwhelming to look at all the names.




They have been working on the Washington Monument for several years now. They are finally done. There are nice sidewalk all around and the flags are back up. It's nice to see our flags flying high.









Hangin' out with FDR.




This is at the Tidal basin across from the Jeffesrson Memorial. This is a very busy area while the Cherry Blossoms are blooming, which is later into Spring. But, it was very calm yesterday.
