Day 2- Downtown DC

We got up early, got ready and drove to the Metro Station. We rode the 50 minute packed Metro to downtown DC. We got off at our stop and walked a little while to see the White House. We took a few pics of the boys with our phones considering we could not bring our cameras with us. We got some good pics of everyone then walked around the White House for our tour. We entered in and showed us our ID and went through security. Once inside we started at the Library, then the Vermeil Room, China Room, Dipolmatic Reception Room, Map Room before heading upstairs. Once upstairs we followed this line into the East Room, Green Room, Blue Room, Red Room and the State Dining Room. That was all we got to tour as the rest is the Private living area for the President and his Family. We went outside on the other side then where we came in. We walked across the street to the Gift Shop. We walked around there but did not get anything. We then walked to the Natural History Museum. We decided to get a bite to eat first then walked around the museum. We started with the dinosaurs, then moved to the Mammals, then finished off with the bugs. We left and found an ice cream store and sat there for a little bit. We walked over to the Metro and got on the the train to the Metro Center, changed trains and went to our stop. We drove home and vegged until dinner. After dinner we just sat around and visited while the boys played. We went to bed around 10:30 that night.
