Washington, D.C. I

Today, we woke up and took the car to reach our new destination; Washington, D.C. We crossed many states, such as Delaware, Maryland or Virginia (actually our hotel is located in Virginia). 

After leaving our baggage in our room, we took the subway to the city center. Once there, we looked after "the National Mall", wich is the area from the Lincoln memorial to the Capitol, forming a park between these monuments. While going to our first museum, the air and space one, we saw a lot of food trucks, all parked in line ready for costumers to come.

Once in the mentioned museum, we saw all the history of planes and spaceships, and some famous ones like "the spirit of Saint Louis", in wich Lindberg crossed the Atlantic ocean for the first time in a solo travel. The whole museum is huge; when you come in to the main room you feel small compared to the big roofs filled with spacecraft of all eras. 

Later, we went to eat lunch at the cafeteria of another museum, the indian-american one, wich was american styled. After this, we visited the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, wich has inspired the movie "Night at the museum". We saw many expositions about animals, human evolution, dinosaurs, etc.

Finally, we bought some food in a grocery store and went home to the hotel.
