More fun in the District with Julia


This is a picture of a picture of a to scale doll house model of the White House.
Pretty cool.

We got to see most of the rooms on the first and second floors, but the third floor was off limits since that is the private residential area for the First Family.

This was our home base at the White House.
The waiting room for VIPs.
Sometimes people eat pie in here.
Made by White House pastry chefs.
Very special people eat this pie.
People from Philadelphia and Oklahoma.
(and, maybe, one of those people dropped a blueberry onto White House Carpet. . . )


Julia and I at the back fence of the South Lawn.

Ben and Julia in front of a magnolia tree in the South Lawn of the White House

The kitchen garden and beehive.
They may or may not grow blueberries in this garden 
out of which the pastry chefs make delicious pie.



Julia, Ethan, & I on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.
Sadly the reflection pool had been drained, but still a beautiful view.

It appears that the dog and baby were enjoying it, though!
 Ben was appalled at the litterers.
Ethan was checking his phone, like a true hot-blooded American.


We got a quick drive-by photo of the Capitol Building,
while we were eating delicious milkshakes from Good Stuff.
From what I understand, the burgers are good, too.
