Our third day in DC turned out to be rather crazy weather. Again it was raining, and by raining I mean A LOT! Towards the end of the afternoon the rain turned into icy snow. The snow was rather unexpected. It certainly wasn’t in the forecasts we’d read that morning.

Given the crazy weather, it was off to museums for the day. First stop was the National Museum of American History.

Look at all the letters on the typewriter!

Miss Piggy!

So many words!

Tate had so much fun seeing if he could find every letter of the alphabet.

Next stop was the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History.

Cheeky Mr Knox!

Gotta check out the dinosaurs!

Such a BIG elephant!

After the Museum of Natural History we decided to head over to Chinatown. Unfortunately that is when the icy snow hit. We got quite soaking after only a few blocks and needed to stop in at a cafe to dry off a bit and have a hot drink.

Knox thought he’d try on Daddy’s beanie……

Last stop for the day was a Thai restaurant in Chinatown and then off to the hotel for bed. We had some very tired kids on our hands after a busy day checking out museums!

Yum! Bean sprouts.
First try and he loved them!
