Disappointment IN DC

Disappointment in DC in a Big way. As you all know we live about 45 min from DC our Nations capital. As a family we have visited there quit a few times and have LOVE IT ALL. Until NOW!! Our family made it a gaol to visit every National Museum and Monument in and arrowed the area before we leave. Good gaol.

So today we went to see the Library of Congress and the National Aquarium. Both are in DC. Our first stop was the library where it hold every book ever printed in the US and some of the world. Well the attache is beautifully as we have come to know and expect form these old and prominent buildings. In side there are a few exhibit rooms. And Yes there is a library this is the catch you have to has a LIBRARY CARD.. That can not be retrieved in the same building you have to walk down the block to get one. And to look at the books you must be 16 year or older to be their on your won EXPENDED. But This is a research library only...What a bummer..

Now we were huger and went to lunch. And spent way to much for 2Kids pizza and a salad and sandwich.

O well off to the Aquarium.. Morgan was so excited to see and so were the rest of us. It was a little of the beaten path. But OK. The aquarium shared a building.. OK.Thought security no sine of the aquarium, down long and submarine like starer well. OK. PAY YES PAY this is the only one in DC you have to pay for.. We should have herd the warning bells by now but NO. We pay the over $25 for all of us to go down a starer well to see a privet collision. This was a ONE HALLWAYS MUSEUM.. WHAT THE HECK!!!! The girls were don in 30 miens. All of it. Ashlyn sad" Wall-Mart may have more""..

So a warning to all of you who go. Don't go to the Aquarium. Save your money for Lunch. And go to the Li bray of congeries to see the building.

Well if you don't go you don't know!!!

We will go again. This does cross off 2 more building on the long list.

Sorry it was not what you were expecting. Now I am glad that we decided to not go to the National Aquarium when I was there. Love you all.
