Ford's Theater and Air and Space Museum

While Pops was here for a visit we rode the train into DC and got our dose of history and educational activities in.  It is pretty neat being able to take my own kids to these places that I once visited with my Dad when I was a child.  I love seeing Nico enjoy learning and asking questions about wherever we are!  Ford's theater was awesome and of course, so was the Air and Space Museum was as well.  Nico was extremely excited and awe when we walked through the doors at the Air and Space Museum.  He couldn't believe his eyes in all the rockets, spaceships and airplanes he was seeing!!! Natalee was just  thrilled with the gift shop, where there were astronaut Hello Kitties and bouncy balls that light up when rolled or bounced!  In fact she found 2 balls and a Hello Kitty which there was no prying away from her hands. 

 You can only take close up pictures of the actual balcony area that President Lincoln was sitting when he was shot and killed through the plastic window that is there.
