DC in Six Hours

Carrie & Carolyn at Lincoln Memorial

Carolyn and I only have a few hours to fit in as much as possible.  What to do, what to see, how to do this?  We checked in with the greatest concierge, Nichole.  She hooked us up with tickets on the Old Town Trolley Tours of Washington DC.  We actually got a special and our tickets were good for 2 days for the price of one and the tour allows you to disembark and get back on all day long.  We started out on the Orange Line and cruised by many of the sights along with entertaining commentary and eventually arrived at the Lincoln Memorial.  This was a great place to disembark.  We were able to see both the Vietnam and Koren War Memorial. Words fail at the enormity of the sacrifice of our soldiers.  The phrase "Freedom is not Free" says it all.

We continued by Union Station and various buildings, museums, monuments, memorials, and statues. (Note to self...see the Spy Museum at first opportunity)  We returned back to the main trolley station and jumped on the Green Line and zoomed past the National Cathedral, Georgetown and Embassy Row. It was such a lovely and interesting drive.

And now you know how to see Washington DC in Six Hours.
