Trolley tour
Today was our big sightseeing day here, we got tickets for a hop-on hop-off bus tour called the Old Town Trolley tour. It worked really well as we got to choose which parts of Washington we wanted to have a look at by just getting off the bus and having a look around. The buses stop at all the tourist attractions every 20-30 minutes.
First stop was to the National Cathedral on a hill overlooking Washington, followed by the Smithsonian Space and Science Musuem. After that, visited the Lincoln Memorial and Vietnam Veterans Memorial, finally followed by the National Museum of Natural History, aka the 'Bones & Stones' Museum.
We then had an early night with a 4am wakeup call for our flight to Mexico.
