Was in Maryland for the Thanksgiving vacation. Visiting the BF's mom for the holiday. Visited only a few of the "famous" spots...but cause of holiday tourists it was impossible to see everything...so here's what I got to see...

Got to go inside the building and did like a mini-tour (thanks to a friend that works there) but wasn't allowed to take any pics inside :cool:

And the best part...Arlington National Cemetery and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier (one from every major US war)

hey there sweety, looks like you had a prety well planned trip there, i like the pictures of the memorials/headstones. I had a hell of a lot of respect for those that died for us to live free.

the hope diamond, lol, you can only wish for one that big.

what kind of other things you do on your trip?

I'm not either but going to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, gave me that sense of glad to be apart of a country that honors their soldiers...and never "leaves a man behind" :cool:
