A Quick Update

Our second full day in Washington was as jam packed as the first.

A headed out early to queue for the daily tour of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing...no publishing connection here, it's where they print USA's cold hard caaaaaaaassssh! Tours are free but you need tickets and they are in limited daily supply. The kids and I caught up with him a little later in the queue and we got tickets for the 9am tour. Andrew walked out with an uncut sheet to $2 bills as a souvenir.

Then the rest of the day was spent in the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum. Amazing museum filled with famous aero/space stuff like Wright flyer, Sputnik, the Hubble telescope etc.

Another early start tomorrow as we queue for tickets to go to the top of the Washington monument. Nighty night!
