Needless to say, our feet/ankles/legs/shins are screaming tonight! So we just ate at one of restaurants at the hotel, and now we are relaxing. Hopefully we can rest enough tonight and keep up the motivation tonight.
We also were moved to a better hotel room tonight with a phenomenal view of DC… what’s even better is we extended our stay one more night (which we were planning already when we got here), but they honored our price which saved us about $150. So a much much better room for the same price. Yeah… I’m okay with that. Until tomorrow…
Picture 1: A fountain we found that was tucked away near the National Mall
Picture 2: This plant was cool… it’s a Pitcher Plant (Kind of like a Venus Fly Trap)
Picture 3: The Orchid Room at the National Botanical gardens. The flowers were absolutely beautiful, and it smelled phenomenal!
