The Jefferson and Washington Monuments



Continuing on with my new friends we head to the Jefferson Monument - One of the founding fathers and much revered character. Again, it is like a temple with the man offered almost God like status. After this we check out the Washington Monument which towers over the centre of The Mall. You can climb up it but you need to get the free tickets in advance (and it is a bit too hot to be honest). Amy has been living in Washington for 10 years with her husband and imparts lots of cool bits of knowledge as we walk around.
