A Theater, A Town and More Planes

Pictures are out of order so the description of our day will be too!!

We end the night in Alexandria, VA after viewing Allen's work buildings in Chantilly, VA as well as the air and space museum. Allen had the best mother's day looking at space craft for the second day in a row.

The museum is several hangers of airplanes crammed together for display.

The space shuttle was the coolest and newest exhibit.

An actual gas lamp

We started the day at Ford's Theater and enjoyed the park rangers description of events that took place inside the theater. We then walked across the street to the Peterson House (included in the ticket) to see where Lincoln died. As you walk out of the house there is an attached museum with the cool column of books demonstrating how many books have been written about Lincoln.

After Ford's we went to Georgetown to enjoy cupcakes and a lobster roll. Just about every shop you could imagine was located with a small area with difficult to find parking.

Slightly melted from sitting in the car but oh so yummy!!

very different housing than LA
