touring the city
We've been enjoying freakishly glorious August weather here in DC lately, with temperatures in the 80s with little to no humidity, which was great for walking the length of the National Mall.
I tried to show Kieran the Dubliner that awful space age architecture at L'Enfant Plaza, but I couldn't find it. Instead we found the Benjamin Banneker Memorial and fountain instead.
This sea creature from the Library of Congress Court of Neptune Fountain reminded me of the critter in the pool that tried to eat Simon LeBon in the Duran Duran 'Wild Boys' video.
There's always something new at the U.S. Botanic Gardens, and we stumbled over a pretty fountain sculpture.
It was a good weekend for touring the city.
