Holocaust and Natural History Museum (9/23)
Interesting last full day in DC. We started with the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum. Brings many tourists back to earth. It is an extremely moving experience. Each of us carried a card of a short biography of one of the victims. We then jumped on the Hop On Hop off bus and off to the Natural History museum (Keep it a secret: we used our pass beyond its expiration time). Plenty to look at in the museum including the famous Hope Diamond. As we walked to the Metro we noticed the Clinton Federal Building.
We have enjoyed DC and leave on Amtrak for Western Massachusetts for the next five days. We missed some things so it means a return trip is in our future. Special thanks to Dave Mineta and Congressman Jared Huffman for making it a special first visit.
