Washington DC has been AMAZING! There are so many things to see, so much history to learn and be reminded of, and so much fun to be had. I have not been the best at taking pictures...but here are a few showing things we've seen.

Korean War Memorial. It was beautiful, a wonderful tribute to those who served. We had a great guide who gave us a 20 minute lesson on the events surrounding the war, some points of the war itself, and how the memorial reflects those things. For example, there are 19 soldiers representing the branches of the military (some for the Navy, AirForce, etc). On the wall there are pictures etched in the outline of a mountain range and you see the reflection of those soldiers on the mountains. With the reflection, there are another 19 soldiers, 38 total, symbolic of the 38th parallel. My Grandfather served in the Korean War so this meant a lot to me.

ReplyDeleteI didn't know all of that stuff about the Korean war.
