4th of July in DC
One of the things we wanted to do most was spend the 4th of July in DC. We spent the day at the Smithsonian and saw the original Star Spangled Banner Flag. We saw the National 4th of July Parade and the real Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. We rode the metro in and and stayed for the Fireworks at the Washington Monument. Very memorable!
Our family loves travel, hiking, camping, birding, reading alound,
biking and playing games together. We currently live in Utah with our 5 children.
