Alexandria - The first week

The Smithsonian Castle

Hope Diamond

Museum of Natural History

The Capitol

Washington Monument

We had an extra day to get settled here in Alexandria since I don't have to start until Tuesday, so we checked out the National museum of Natural History (part of the Smithsonian). We're in a really great location here. It's very convenient to public transit - the best way to get into the city. As you can see, it was kinda foggy today. Maybe I'll get better pictures later.
