Washington trip day 3: by Adam Rosenblun

After yesterday's extremely tiring day, we were very refreshed this morning and ready to explore Washington, D.C. (Americas Capitol). 
After breakfast, we headed to the bus to go to the smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian and were greeted with great weather for an awesome day. we were greeted to amazing architecture and interesting history about an outstanding history . After a quick visit to that museum, we headed for the air and space museum, my personal favorite to learn and observe some of Americas finest achievements in aviation history. We saw several planes flown throughout history and well known artifacts. At the airplane simulators, me and all other "pilots" learned how difficult it is to fly an airplane. Following our visit to the smithsonian air and space museum, we went outside and got a load of cheap street shopping near the smithsonian hirshorn museum featuring modern art. Unfortunately we did not get to tour that museum. We then headed to the smithsonian national museum of natural history where we learned and saw millions of artifacts and experienced several interactive activities. We saw priceless objects that can trace back well before prehistoric times and even human history such as the hope diamond, and many living creatures. After a long day we headed back to the hotel with one short stop at the Air Force memorial for a quick view of the interesting memorial showing airplanes jet streams through the sky. After dinner back at the hotel, we saw a great presentation about moral values and making things right.
Though we had a long tiring day, it is  definately a day that I will remember for a long time. Hopefully the next few days will be just as exiting!
