After the sealing last Wednesday night we decided not to make the drive home right away and stayed in a hotel instead. The next morning we rested while Bryan worked, then we packed up and headed into downtown DC. Our first stop was a delicious pizza place to spend time with Bryan's brother Paul. We had a great meal and a great visit.
After seeing Paul we had a little time left before we needed to head home. We walked to the National Museum of Natural History and saw lots of taxidermied animals, plus the Hope Diamond. Then we spent time at the National Archives (which forbids any photography inside) and saw the Constitution, The Bill of Rights, and The Declaration of Independence. They're all extremely faded, but still very cool to see, especially just a few days after Independence Day. At that point we were all tired and some of us were grumpy, so we made our way back to the van and got on the road to go home.
The kids shared their pictures in a big group album, so most of these weren't taken by me.

Great trip! Paul looks a lot like his dads including his lopsided smile.
