DC in a Day

Our day started early to fit in everyones social arrangements. We departed for DC on the train and were greeted at the Grand Central Station - an AWESOME sight!

We had a guided tour of all the famous goverment buildings of DC such as Capital building



and the White House.

In the afternoon we visited the Air and Space Museum (free entry!) and watched an Imax film.
Our "pets" had a great time too.



This evening the Rangers have left the leaders for fun and games at a girl scout's house... with a pool.

  1. One of the most destructive storms in years struck Washington, D.C., and the surrounding area on July 25, 2010. Strong winds downed trees and power lines, leaving hundreds of thousands of residents without power, stopping elevators, and darkening malls and movie theaters. Falling trees killed at least two people. The following morning, crews were working furiously to restore power to homes, traffic lights, and even a water treatment plant.

  3. So pleased you were not there when you'd planned to be. Hope there were not too many disruptions to your programme and travels.
