Day 2 - Public Transportation

The theme for today was definitely "public transportation."  The boys absolutely love to ride the bus and the Metro.  It is their favorite thing to do here.  Both Auntie and Uncie had to work today, so we decided to use meeting Uncie for lunch as a good excuse to ride the bus two times and the metro four times.

The boys waiting for the MetroBus.


This is the Cannon Building which houses offices for many of the congressmen.  Uncie works for a congressman from Virginia and this is where he works. Of course, the boys had to do some "training" while they waited for Uncie.

 We ate lunch out of a truck?!  The boys love the fact that there are lots of "food trucks" throughout the city. This grilled cheese themed truck was perfect for the boys!


After lunch, Uncie gave us a tour of his building and then took us on a tour of the tunnels that run under the Capitol and associated buildings.

Before leaving, the boys got to enjoy ice cream underground in the cafeteria.  Caleb loved the fact that it was underground.
