I recently had the privilege of visiting Washington D.C where I toured some of our nation’s iconic monuments and buildings. During my visit, my host was able to secure me a tour of The White House’s East Wing! I also walked the National Mall to visit the Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial and the Vietnam War Memorial. The summer heatwave was brutal but I survived and was able to capture a fair number of photos as you can see below.
The highlight of my trip was visiting the Udvar-Hazy Center which is a huge annex of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. There, I got to get up close and personal with the Discovery Space Shuttle, a top secret SR-71 Blackbird, the SuperSonic Concord Jet and many more aircraft!

The next time I visit Washington D.C., I plan on touring the West Wing, ascending to the top of the Washington Monument, visiting the Spy Museum as well as the Museum of Nature History.
