Washington
After two days in Kingsport we continued to Washington for another two (10–11 February 2008), staying at a Radisson. We went around the National Mall — Lincoln Memorial, World War II Memorial, the Washington Monument, the Air & Space Museum — and Arlington National Cemetery. From here we drove north through Baltimore toward Philadelphia.
