We headed home to WV on Thursday and took the scenic route(pretty but long and rainy) DC was pretty amazing and we really only saw a small piece of it! We became pros on the Metro🤣! Walked the Mall during the day, Smithsonian, cherry blossoms, the wharf area, and Annapolis Naval Academy were just a few things we saw! Once again Bill’s trip planning was perfect! Cherry Blossoms in perfect bloom!!!!
