We got to be tourists and headed to the Air and Space Museum, but not the normal one on the Mall in DC. We went to the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy center on the Virginia side. It was amazing, bigger than the museum on the mall and lots more plans. We did not know it in advance but we showed up on a special weekend where all sorts of planes were that people had flown in for the day. Including the President's helicopter. It was all pretty cool. It was more crowded than usual but totally worth it.
My favorite - The Discovery... super cool to see this up close. It is a little bit bigger than I expected.
This is the tail and the tiles that you used to hear them talk about all the time on the news. Those tiles are small.
My patriotic girl. I just love this picture of her looking cute.
My girls playing airplane... lots of fun for little ones, going down the runway.
This was outside on the runway. They were allowed to climb in some of the planes and move the controls to see what happened. The owners of these plans were standing around talking to us and were some really cool people. There was even a wing walker they were able to talk with.
The Air force had a plane there that the kids got to climb in. We laughed because it was an Air Force plane, but the crew was mostly Navy.
At the end of the day, the battery on the camera died, so I don't have pictures of Port Discovery Children's museum, The National Aquarium in Baltimore, The Patuxent Natural Wildlife Refuge Center, The visitor center at the Naval Academy, Downtown Annapolis, or Quiet Waters Park. We went to a lot of different place too, but I can't remember them all.
Each place we went had some really cool stuff, but we don't have any pictures. Actually it was kind of nice to be able to see all this stuff and not worry about the camera. We enjoyed all our adventures and spent time just being together.
