Washington, D.C. With the Boys, Day #6 “Our Last Day in D.C.”

Only one day left but so much left to see. What should we do on our last day in D.C? After a brief discussion we decided on The Spy Museum. The place was very kid oriented and our kids seemed to like it. They especially liked the gift shop where they found “Light Bugs” which were a huge success.

After the Spy Museum we went to the National Portrait Gallery. We viewed the portraits of all the former Presidents. Of interest to me was that Richard Nixon’s portrait was painted by Norman Rockwell.   One of my least favorite Presidents painted by one of my favorite painters.

There was a huge line to get in position to take a photo or selfie of Barack Obama’s portrait. Instead of waiting I settled for a shot at a slight angle.

Then I was off to find Michelle Obama’s portrait. That proved to be a more difficult task since all the First Ladies were not displayed together. We looked all over and couldn’t find it. I finally I gave up.

But not really.

After the portrait gallery we headed to dinner at Farmers and Distillers (600 Massachusetts Ave NW, Washington, DC 20001). Since we leave very early tomorrow morning we decided to celebrate David’s birthday tonight (his birthday is actually tomorrow).

As usual we ate too much so we walked back to the hotel. On the way we got to see Charlie’s favorite activity that he enjoyed many times during this trip.

As I said we leave very early tomorrow so it’s off to bed.

See you soon.
