The last time we went to DC as a family was to visit the Bible Museum pre-Covid so it was probably 2019. I remember the kids were young, but no one was in a stroller, so Evie would have been 5. Most didn't remember it, so we realized we need to fit in DC trips more often. It was a major childhood memory of mine, and it's a shame to live this close and not have good memories of DC.
We took the subway in from Shady Grove, then walked around a bit before having lunch. I had to give up my nail clippers when we went into a gift shop associated with the White House because it had a tiny curved nail file. I set it outside hoping to remember it on the way out but forgot it when we all got hungry at the same time and rushed out to find that taco place we'd passed by.
We settled at the Museum of Natural History after lunch and stayed for hours! I was astonished at how much the kids enjoyed it. We literally stayed until closing, then took the subway back to Shady Grove.
It wasn't quite peak season for cherry blossoms, so I took magnolia photos.
