Probably the best photograph
of the whole trip was taken four hours after we arrived in Washington. The Lincoln Memorial in the last light. We wouldn't have noticed it if we hadn't been talking to a professional photographer
sporting a $4,000 camera and a view finder the size of a TV screen!!

Apart from the attractiveness and significance of the Arlington Cemetry, all of the key points of DC were visible from its elevated position - even to our surprise through one gap in the trees (below) - The Pentagon.

Two final shots of a delightful and impressive city. DC through the trees from Arlington - and Washington
Memorial at 5pm - far too late we were
told to have any chance of reaching the top without a ticket.

Three minutes later a group turned
up with a spare pair. A good finish to
a great two days in 'the world's capital'
