Our first trip we lucked in to a cab with the nicest driver. He got us up close to the lit up memorials and it was a splendid unexpected bonus.

Love the kindness of strangers that happens from time to time.

The Lincoln Memorial was the highlight that night. But I also remember the warm glow surrounding the statue of Thomas Jefferson with lights shimmering on the Potomac.
 
MikeR, your trip reports are bringing back great memories of my own high school trip to D.C. Enjoy the day tomorrow and have a safe flight home.
 
Looks like you have had a perfect trip! The evening photos are beautiful---I love looking at the monuments at night. The Korean War Memorial is one of my favorites--so haunting! Have a great last day, and safe travels home!
 
:up: And it looks like you dodged the T-storms which I thought were inevitable for this evening. No bumpy flight for you all, I hope!
 
no one has better travel and weather karma than I


no one

and I got the record to prove it.... ;)
 
:up: I have good weather karma, too. Even better parking karma, which helps a LOT on my workdays....happy Grey Goose!
