| The White House has this nice view through the trees of the Washington Monument. | We started our fifth & final day in DC at the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery. | |
|
|
|
| This sculpture, titled "Floating Mountains, Singing Clouds", was made from "chicken wire". | While Ann spent some time viewing the Sackler's special exhibit of Ottoman robes, Chris rested in the Enid A. Haupt Garden behind the Smithsonian Castle. | |
|
|
|
| The Smithsonian Air & Space Museum was another important stop. Here Ann poses with an actual Lunar Lander Module (built for the Space Program, but never used). | Before the Wright Brothers learned to fly, they built bicycles. We were amazed that modern 10-speed bikes look almost identical to this 1897 model. | |

|
| The fall colors were getting into full swing now, as evidenced by this view of the Capitol from outside the Smithsonian. | Our final museum visit was to the Smithsonian National Museum of American History. Linda & Ann pose with an EV1 electric car, which their brother Mike used to drive. | |
