Trip Day 5: City of Blinding Lights

We decided to sleep in today since it was our 6th anniversary. Once we got going we headed across the street to the Postal Museum where we were educated about the history of the Post Office, saw how postal inspectors catch bad guys (Cyndi did great at figuring out who the bad guys was by looking at mug shots, fingerprints and the clues.) After that we crossed the street again over to Union Station where we stopped for a bite to eat.

Next it was time to head over to Arlington National Cemetary. They had a deal that you could take a tram around to all of the major locations. We hopped on that and walked around a bit at each stop.
After Arlington it was time for dinner so we grabbed some Sabarro. As we were walking back through Union Station we stopped to ask about the Twilight Tour of all the Monuments. They told us what time to come back and where to get our tickets so we went and showered and changed and headed back to catch the 7 o'clock bus.


The WWII Memorial was special for us to go see as all of our grandpa's served as well as my grandma Dougherty. We were able to find Grandpa Hutchins in the database but none of the others.
