National Memorials With Rita

I made another tour around the major national memorials, this time while Rita was visiting. We did the big loop, walking from my apartment, through the sculpture garden, down the mall, over to the Jefferson Memorial, and around the tidal basin to the FDR Memorial, then over to the Korean War Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, through the Vietnam Memorial, down the reflecting pool to the World War II memorial, then past the Washington Monument and back home. We took our time and didn’t walk too fast, so it took about five hours. The weather was perfect, and it was a great day to do a walking tour. And as always, these monuments are awe inspiring.
