More From DC

More from Washington D.C.
Mas de la capital.
These pictures were all taken in front of the WW II memorial and you can see the Lincoln Memorial in the background. Marcelo is a history buff and he really loves to watch extremely boring documentaries about WW II on the History Chanel (which we don't have so I am spared until we visit my parents and he acts like a kid in a candy store). Seeing the memorial makes it real for anyone, even me who doesn't like to watch all those documentaries. It was really overwhelming in a tragically, beautiful way.

What a backdrop, no? And there's no way the picture could really show how beautiful it was to look at Ian with this sky behind him.

What a place for lunch!

An Asian lady walked up to us after Ian finished his bottle and touched him on the cheek and then took his picture. I've taken tons of pictures of beautiful Mayan bebes in Guatemala but there moms always hold out a little hand and ask for "UnQuetzal". I had an urge to do the same, "one quarter please." but I let it go.
