After we finished looking around Arlington Cemetery we got on the bus and headed over to the National Mall. I will just use pictures to explain the day.
Our first stop was the Lincoln Memorial
The statue is 19 foot tall

When we got down from the Washington Monument we were getting cold and it was about time for the tour to be over so we decided to head back to Megan's place. As we were walking to catch the bus we saw it sitting at the stop but couldn't get there soon enough so we had to wait 30 minutes for the next one. Once we got back to Megan's she was already off work so we headed over to the mall all together.For dinner that night her apartment was having a little thing upstairs where they had wine, drinks and appetizers. We went up there and ate some snacks and ended up getting full. After that we headed over to the outdoor skating rink that was right around the corner. We skated for about 2 hours and had a blast.
