Washington D.C. – National Mall Featuring World War II Memorial Pictures

This week I am spending a few days touring Washington D.C. I know it is not Disney but I thought some may be interested so here are some cell-phone pictures from my trip. To see all of my posts visit my 2017 Washington D.C. Summary Page. This post features an afternoon walk around the National Mall including a look at the World War II Memorial.
