After John finished up his work commitments, we set out to enjoy the capital. We enjoyed a walk along the mall, taking in the monuments (WWII above). We found ourselves by the National Museum of African American History & Culture. https://nmaahc.si.edu/
The history portion of the museum begins under the ground level and circles up. At the start, it explains the start of slavery. We wound our way to the civil rights era before calling it a day. This museum definitely needs another visit. There was so much to see and learn. It is very captivating.
We hopped on the metro for dinner in the GWU area. We had fun watching the people streaming to and from the metro stop there. John recollected a place where he had played darts during a previous visit so we rushed there for 1 and 3/4 games of darts before we had to depart to catch our flight. As we emerged from the pub, it was pouring rain. Thank goodness for the ease of uber use! The D.C. area is always so fun to visit. Much to see and do!
