A continental trip - Part 3

A very large flag flying proudly over the restaurant where we were going for supper.







A Spitfire at the National air and Space Museum, part of the Smithsonian.
The outside of this great museum.



The space shuttle Enterprise, just breath taking to see close up. Although this particular one never went into space it was the prototype for testing and carried on the back of the 747 which I remember seeing flying over Montreal all those years ago.
Looking down the hall in the museum.
Flags in front of Union Station.




Mount Vernon the home of George Washington.








Most of the above pictures were on the property at Mount Vernon.
There is so much histroy here to discover and never enough time.
