The bad news: It was a very gray day.
But it was nothing Photoshop couldn't handle!
We parked at Hains Point and took the shuttle around to the Jefferson Memorial (which Choclo told someone today was "a thousand meters long, and a jillion meters high!" To which I thought, "Yes!! My 6 year old is thinking in metric! Science WIN!!!").
After our trip to the gigantic memorial, we walked around under the cherry blossoms, soaking up the beauty. But it wasn't long before the kids found the main attraction of the trip.You won't believe this, but there were actual..ducks!
Yes, it's true, there were two living, breathing, quacking ducks on the grass!!!
Yes, that's an actual duck, not Photoshopped at all! (Unlike, say, the blue skies...)
The picture from the post below is actually all the kids looking at the ducks (there were two). The ducks were the kids favorite part.
The moms favorite part was seeing the group of 5 or 6 people who set up tables with lovely tablecloths and antique china, and were having an elegant tea by the tidal basin. We really want to do that (when our kids are old enough to want to dress up as waiters and butlers...).
