Washington DC

Category: Vacation — Ian C. @ 2:55 pm

Having now twice visited Washington DC and not really seen anything (once when stranded coming back from Florida, and again during MINI Takes The States), we decided to visit properly! We flew in to Reagan airport, just a few minutes from our hotel which was right in the middle of the city, and almost immediately next door to the White House!

Washington DC is very compact and full of great architecture, loads of monuments, and amazing museums - you’d need a week or more to see everything but we did quite well in 1-1/2 days!
Here’s a selection of pictures, but there’s loads more in the Gallery
