Washington, D.C.

Busy day - breakfast at Harriet's Cafe - oatmeal.  Then we went to Peet's Coffee for Mare's tea, my latte and a scone.

Then off to the Capitol for our 10:00 tour.



Lunch at the Capitol - Mexican

Then another tour - Extraordinary Ordinary People Tour.  

 

We got to see the Old Senate Chamber

 
Next was the Library of Congress Tour.  While looking down on the reading room, only open to card carrying members, we decided we wanted to get in there.

So off to the James Madison Library to get our cards - the application process


With cards in hand we went back to the Library of Congress and into the reading room



On our way back to hotel we walked by the botanic gardens


Hung out for a bit



Dinner - metro to Willie T's for lobster rolls, over by Dupont Circle. Street music at Metro station



Lobster roll 


Metro home!

Another great day in Washington, D.C.

Tomorrow the Renwick Gallery.  Check out events on embassy row, around Dupont Circle, and Trader Joes (snacks and wine for the train ride home).
