Washington DC never fails to be wonderful. Excellent food, museums, my favorite zoo, plus the National Archives where we started the day by examining and copying original records of Bruce's ancestor who fought in the Civil War.We spent the rest of the day in our National Gallery. Among the exhibitions is "The Dying Gaul" on loan from the Capitoline Museums in Rome. See more at their site. See good photographs of this masterpiece.
I was happy to see "Second Beach, Newport" which reminds me that summer will soon be here. See more about this picture.
Tomorrow we will be back home - a day early - because of the snow. Tonight we will go to our favorite DC area restaurant, Astor, for another Mediterranean feast complete with rice pudding. A good ending to a very nice trip.
