I <3 DC
I have just returned from an amazing week in Washington DC and I can’t believe how much we did! The main attraction was the reception for my Davidson Fellowship at the Museum of the American Indian on Wednesday (9/29) at night, but we got to DC the previous Saturday to make sure we got to see the sights!
Here’s a quick run down on everything we did:
- Toured the International Spy museum.
- Toured the National Air and Space Museum.
- Toured the Museum of Natural History.
- Toured the US Capitol.
- Toured the Pentagon.
- Saw a lot of memorials.
- Went up the Washington Monument.
- Toured Johns Hopkins.
- Had breakfast with Senator Al Franken.
- Met with Senator Amy Klobuchar.
- Met Congressman Eric Paulson.
- Met with Jan and Bob Davidson of the Davidson Institute.
- Went on an exclusive “Dome Tour” of the Capitol (behind the scenes and on the roof!).
- Gave a speech, had dinner, and received an award at the Museum of the American Indian.
