We had an early morning tour at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing where we got to see currency being produced. No samples today, though. We also went to the National Museum of American History. The Road to Freedom exhibit is spectacular. The First Ladies' Exhibit was neat, too. We skipped right over the Inauguration 2009 section...not interested.
We ended the day at the baseball stadium to watch the Nationals pull out a win over the Red Sox. I have never seen a more devoted bunch of fans than those Sox fans. There were as many of them at the game as there were Nats fans. The food was great, the stadium was gorgeous, and we had a great time. Kevin sprung for a cab ride back to the hotel -- we didn't have to fight the crowd on the Metro. Madalyn wasn't thrilled because she loves the public transportation system. Go figure.
Anyway, here's a few pics of the fun:
Cody & Madalyn find out they're not only worth their weight in gold, they're also pretty valuable in terms of their height, too.
A costumed docent at the National Museum of American History told a story about how the first flag was made.
A beautiful night for baseball at the Nationals stadium.
