A Day on Foot

The Amahoro board meeting ended this morning and the National Prayer Breakfast doesn't begin until tomorrow so I used the day to do one of my favorite things: walk around historic places and learn. So, I left some friends after lunch this afternoon, jumped on the Metro at DuPont Circle and took it down to the National Mall. Though this is my fourth or fifth time in DC, I went on a tour of the Washington Monument for the first time. The last couple of times I have been here the monument was closed for repairs. Let me tell you, the view of the United States capital from 500 feet is amazing. Though I only had my phone to take pictures with, you can get a sense of it. Of course, it you have Google Earth, you can get a much better sense!
