At first she was kind of suspicious of the big tunnels and dark lengths of space, but she adapted pretty quickly. She rode the train like a pro, and got a few waves from fellow passengers in her travels.
Can you feel the sunshine and light breeze in these pictures? Perfect fall weather...
Our first stop was the National Museum of American History, one of our favorites.
The Girlie stopped by to say hello to Julia Child:
She taught us a bit about DNA sequencing:
And then Daddy schooled us on the hip culture that surrounded him growing up:
The absolute highlight of the trip was our ride on the carousel. The Bambina loved it! She even got to ride for free since passengers under 1 year don't require a ticket-- she made the cutoff with just two days to spare!!
Going through childhood this second time around is just as eye-opening as the first...
What a fun day! I love the photos of her at the museum - learning so much!
ReplyDeleteWhere is that awesome carousel? I have to take Asher before he hits 1 year! Ok, maybe we'll splurge and take him after the year mark too. :o)
The carousel is right on the Mall in front of the Smithsonian Castle-- you can't miss it. Let us know if you ever need a tour guide. I'm sure the Bambina would love to go for another spin. Even if we have to splurge with an extra $2.50. You guys are well worth it!! ;-)
