AMERICA, FUCK YEAH 250
We did an overnight in DC. Wife had to attend a class, so I had the kids. Got in late Monday, got back around 0200 Wednesday.
Tuesday, we started off by heading to Observatory Circle to see the Naval Observatory. Could barely see it from a walking trail that bordered the fence line.
Afterwards, we did the Great American State Fair. We really enjoyed it and I thought it was a great time. Definitely recommend going if you can make it.
There was also a lot being set up in preparation for the 4th/250. With that, lots of stuff was secured, and the Mall had specific entry/exit points. Kinda made everything a PITA and a bit of a bummer. We took a bus to Lafayette Square, got off, and the entirety plus the areas surrounding the WH was secured. The Secret Service, Police, NG troops were very helpful providing info and navigation. When we wer heading home, took damn near an hour to try to find a way out. BUT, the GASF was worth it. Nothing to bitch about, just a heads up if you guys go.
