உள்ளே போனால்...அவ்வளவு கூட்டம்...அவ்வளவு மக்கள்...திருவிழா கூட்டம் போல இருந்துச்சு...அதை விட, நான் நிறைய இந்திய மக்கள் பார்தேன்....guess everybody is enjoiing the weekend..
I saw a lot of variety of fishes....Stingray, shark, peacock fish, yellow fish



And suddenly I saw a big crowd swarming a tank....I was also curious...It was none other than our Nemo fish (clown anemone fish). I have seen it in "Finding Nemo" - it was beautiful.
On the entrance to the aquarium, I read the following "If there is anything called magic that exists, its underneath water", that's true..So many colours :)

I liked the below photo on the walls of the aquarium.

Then we went to the most exciting part of the aquarium -Dolphin show ..But this time, our camera batteries went dead. It is sad we could not catch it in our cameras. It was too good, Dolphins going past the ring, playing with balls, dancing, whistling...It was a good show :)
So after the show and having a not so tasty lunch , We came out and decided to ride a boat on the small lake..We had our life vests on and then rode the electric boad for around 40 minutes in the bay....ஆசை மட்டும் இருந்துச்சு, ஆனா ஓட்டும் போது, எனக்கு பயம் மட்டும் தான் இருந்துச்சுசுசுசுசுசுசுசு :)
Then after a hour drive took us to Washington D.C., ...Citykulley nulainchavudan, after driving driving for around 40 minutes, we found a parking lot :( It was 7 pm and immediately we refereshed and stepped into a tour bus for 'After Dark Washington Tour'. So we saw lots of places from bus at night, all lit up...Lot of monuments and memorials (Lincoln, Washington, Jeffferson) throughout the city and other memorials to commemorate World war-II, Vietnam war, Korean war etc.. Sure this city is all about memorials, museums and buildings.
I saw Washington monument, Lincoln memorial, World war-II memorial..The best part about all these buildings were they were all in a straight line and a pool in between all these building to show the reflections of the buildings



The next day, after having a breakfast at McD, We jus decided to walk around all places, This time we had our new batteries, So we went clicking all the way :) We saw the White house from outside the gates....


And after walking around all the memorials, we decided to go to the famous group of museums- Smithsonian museum. We decided to visit space museum first, where we saw an IMAX film -Roving Mars. An excellent 40 minutes film, that tells about NASA efforts to send robot to Mars to confirm whether there was water and proof of earlier life in Mars.

But after a quick lunch we were quite tired of walking around the entire day and decided it is time to return back home. And here comes another highlight of the tour !! I drove on freeway for 160 km (approx 1.5 hrs). Quite exciting for me :-)
Overall it was a peaceful unplanned trip, we did not visit many places, but enjoyed it our way :-)
