Got into DC a little early on a beautiful day and had a chance to visit a few of the memorials. DC is a beautiful city with many green spaces and of course some very wonderful monuments.

The Lincoln Memorial sits atop a small rise at the end of the reflection pool. |

Abraham Lincoln a giant of a man who governed at a tumultuous time. His leadership and courage still inspires. |
If I have time I will post some of the other memorials. Truly a fantastic place to visit!
