The sky will go down Yunluo and Yan Shenyu also embarked on the way back, these two days because of the time difference, a night around six o'clock is particularly sleepy, today actually fell asleep in the car, back home at half past 8, everyone is hungry, mushrooms mm fried a few home-cooked dishes, Yunluo gobbled up for a while, after eating Yunluo is responsible for washing the dishes.

After being busy, I opened a bottle of Colora beer, smoked a cigarette on the balcony, and died of comfort. It doesn't feel like it's on a journey, it's more comfortable to live at home, the beer was bought at liquidshop last night, in fact, beer is generally available in shops and convenience stores, and you must show your ID when you buy it, and for Yunluo and Yan Shenyu tourists, you can show your passport.

Travel, many times is a feeling, because of the Age of Discovery, Malacca, Alexandria, Kyoto, Goa, when the clouds fall to these places, people have not arrived, the heart has been moved, because of a favorite movie "North African Spy", Casablanca is still the place where Yunluo wants to go the most, there is no one.

In the past, I had a friend go to Spain, and the pillow book I brought was "Spanish Travel Notes", and when I went to Paris, I would bring "Bring a Book to Paris", and before this trip to the United States, Yunluo also re-opened the same Linda's historical and humanities series about the United States "Sweeping the Fallen Leaves for Winter", and I had more reverence for the National Mall and Arlington Cemetery in Washington.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is a truth that the people must go, sleep until they wake up naturally in the morning, have breakfast and lunch, and then set off for ○▼, ww+w. Washington, from Gaithersburg, Maryland to Washington is less than an hour's drive, and when you see the Washington Monument from afar, you know that it is not far from the National Mall.

As the capital, Washington is really not a big city, at least New York, Chicago, San Francisco in the United States. Los Angeles is a more bustling metropolis, so Washington D.C. is definitely a quieter capital to get back to basics, with a large lawn on the National Mall in the center of the city and a large body of water next to it.

Stop at 7th Street, next to the National Mall, and don't go through ** Avenue to the National Mall's central axis. To the west is the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial, and to the east is the famous Capitol Hill, which is also a paradise for runners, where the hero of "Captain America 2" first ran around the reflectingpool.

More tourists from the United States and other countries, the pool in front of Capitol Hill is the best place to photograph the Capitol, unfortunately the Capitol is resting, and the Roman columns under the dome are surrounded by a circle of steel scaffolding, which slightly spoils the scenery. Walking around the Capitol, it is no longer possible to go in and visit. Tickets need to be booked online in advance.

A small number of on-site tickets will also be awarded to early queues. In addition to the Capitol, tours of the interior of the Washington Monument, as well as the interior of the White House, require online advance reservations. In contrast, the Lincoln Memorial is much more accessible to the public, open 24 hours a day, and many visitors still sit on the marble steps after dark.

If it weren't open 24 hours, how could Megatron easily rush into the temple and destroy the statue of Lincoln! Prepare to return to the parking lot to pick up your car and proceed to the Lincoln Memorial. When passing by the American Museum of Natural History, go in and look for the restroom. Also in the hall on the first floor, I saw the famous elephant specimen, one of the largest African elephants in the world, Yunluo had always thought it was a mammoth.

The movie "Night at the Museum" was filmed here, and the cover of the "Washington Museum" series is also this elephant. Godmother and grandmother didn't have much interest in the museum, and Yunluo decided to come over tomorrow to visit the museums around the National Mall. The art museum and botanical garden are also enough to be interested in wandering here for a few days.

Back at the park, the tragedy was that Yunluo and Yan Shenyu were parked by another Chevrolet car, and Yunluo and Yan Shenyu were Passats. After looking around the neighborhood, Yunluo and Yan Shenyu's car was gone! The first reaction was that it was towed away by a tow truck, and I carefully looked at the sign on the parking meter to know that it could only stand after 2:30.

Yunluo and Yan Shenyu parked at 1:50, and they may have been towed away because of illegal parking, but it is not scientific, because the meter's coin machine is in normal use, Yunluo and Yan Shenyu also bought two hours of parking fees, and the money was collected, and there was a problem!

Call the trailer company, say that you can't find Yunluo and Yan Shenyu's license plate information, it's best to ask after 40 minutes, during this period, Yunluo and Yan Shenyu also sat on the roadside chair to rest, Yunluo also ran around half of the National Square, I haven't run for a long time, and my physical strength is a little tight!

40 minutes later, there was still no tow information, Yunluo went to determine the parking location, just saw a staff member driving a trailer ready to tow another car, so he went up to ask, the first time he asked, he said that he could not find Yunluo and Yan Shenyu's license plate information, his heart was cold, should it be stolen.

The car was stolen, Yunluo and Yan Shenyu were indeed not ready for it, and they couldn't accept it! The second time the tow truck staff went to his colleague and finally confirmed that Yunluo and Yan Shenyu's car was indeed towed!

Illegal parking, the fine is 30~50 dollars, but the towing fee is expensive, at least 100 dollars, the labor cost in the United States is too expensive, plus the 40 dollars that hitchhike to the trailer company, this accident directly made the mushroom mm lose 200 dollars, about it, she is also the first time in her life to experience being towed! After tossing and getting the car, it was already 5 o'clock.

Everyone was also very depressed and didn't want to go again, and I didn't find a good parking place near the Lincoln Memorial, so I just took a look at it from a distance and set off to go back, returning to the community to catch a gorgeous sunset, and make up for the regret that I didn't have a good time today.

Today, Yunluo acted alone, got up and set off after breakfast, in order to rush to Washington as early as possible and go to the museum. The museum will always be the most interesting part of Yunluo's travels, and he has had endless curiosity about those things with stories since he was a child.

The Red Line runs from Shadygrove to Metrocenter and then to the Blue or Orange Lines, one stop to the FederaralTriangle, where you cross the street to the back of the Museum of American History and the Museum of Natural History to the east.

First of all, there is the mammal and marine life hall on the first floor, and the wild animals who have made the specimens are still bright-eyed. Lifelike, among them, the large octopus ** specimen in the aquarium is reminiscent of how much is a pound of squid shreds, such a big octopus should make a lot of money.

The "Stone" Pavilion on the second floor also allows Yunluo to look at it for nearly an hour, and the stones are full of various meteorites, rocks, and crystal ores. Metallic ores as well as various gemstones.

There are five that are more impressive: 1. Meteorite fragments older than the age of the solar system 2. Fluorescent stones of various colors, when the lights in the glass of the exhibition hall go out, it is like entering the world of Alice in Wonderland 3. Gold Mine 4. Hope Blue Diamond 5. The diamond necklace that Napoleon gave to his wife.

The butterfly hall of the Rainforest Pavilion requires additional money and has to queue, without entering, the animal fossil hall can be browsed, and the human skeleton is said to be Glover? Krantz himself is also an anthropologist who has dedicated his life to the study of savages.

In addition, there is a special exhibition of Egyptian mummies during this time, and there are three authentic mummies on display! As luck would have it, last year I didn't have a ticket to the Egyptian Museum to see the corpses that had been dried for thousands of years, but now they are available in the United States.

I don't feel terrible when I see the mummy dry corpse falling down. On the contrary, it is cordial, and when you see everything about Egypt, you will feel cordial. On the first floor of the entrance to Constitution Avenue, which is also the first floor of the main entrance to the National Mall, there is also the skull of Tyrannosaurus Trex, which represents American dinosaur fossils, and a stone statue on Easter Island, a dinosaur fossil museum under restoration.

You can also see a complete triceratops fossil through the crack in the door, and by the time the clouds have come out of the Natural History Museum, it was already half past two in the afternoon, which was seriously longer than expected. Next, I spent another 1 hour visiting the Air and Space Museum, after all, Yunluo is also from a related professional class. Always look at the flying machines that used to appear in textbooks.

In the end, there was less than an hour left for the National Gallery, and Yunluo only hated that he didn't get up earlier in the morning, so that he could only find time to visit the art museum in Washington after returning to Maryland from his trip to New York.

It takes half a day. Yunluo can only look for those must-see famous paintings one by one according to priority, which feels a bit like the field orientation activity of outward bound training at work. Leonardo da Vinci's Ginevra de 'Benci, Van Gogh's Wheat Field, Van Gogh's Self-Portrait, Monet's Lurand Cathedral. There are also Picasso's familysaltimbanques.

Louis? David's maiden in white is also beautiful, if you don't know Louie? David, then you should know the famous painting called "The Death of Marat", yes, he painted it.

After the museum closed, the evening sun was just right, and I began to walk on the National Mall, first to the Washington Monument, looking up at the ancient Egyptian obelisk, which represents freedom, **, surrounded by a circle of stars and stripes, recalling the price of freedom mentioned in "Worries in the Depths of History", it is also quite touching.

PS: No other building is allowed in the whole of Washington to be taller than the obelisk! Then I walked around the tidal lake and saw the golden light of the setting sun shining into the lobby of the Jefferson Memorial, illuminating one of the Founding Fathers of the United States that Yunluo admired the most, Thomas? Bronze statue of Jefferson.

Jefferson's philosophy was that of a large people, a small government, and he always insisted on strictly abiding by and interpreting the Constitution, and advocated limiting the power and size of government and giving the people more freedom.

Next is the Franklin Memorial and the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Park, both on the banks of the Tidal Lake, and finally back to the westernmost section of the central axis, the Lincoln Memorial, there is not much to say about President Lincoln, except for Washington, the founding father, Lincoln has been the most respected president in American history.

Later, I went to Springfield on Route 66 to see where Lincoln lived for a long time as a lawyer. The Lincoln Memorial is also the most visited place, and most people probably come here to rest after a tiresome walk and take a leisurely look at the full view of the National Mall and the monuments reflected in the pools.

Today's sunset was also particularly beautiful, and I was lucky enough to photograph the scarlet burning clouds at the Lincoln Memorial. If you love someone, take them to New York, and if you hate someone, then take them to New York, NewYork, as the capital of the world, its charm is not something that can be described in a few words.

Yunluo is not a person who likes big cities, let alone New York, which is already congested and dirty in the United States. But Yunluo has to fall in love with New York, because Yunluo likes "Friends", "Sleepless in Seattle", "When Harry Met Sally", and "National Treasure". It's like the Casablanca it said before.

Yunluo is the kind of person who is often fascinated by a place because of a book or a movie and has a lot of expectations, and even the other way, in order to look forward to a place and watch some related movies and books, here he vomits blood and recommends a movie of "Cairo Time", which is very good!

A bit of nonsense, the trip to New York Yunluo and Yan Shenyu did not drive, 1. Driving is very tired, tolls are not cheap, 2. New York parking is troublesome and expensive, so choose the bus round-trip, the hotel booked is near Manhattan Times Square, called nycrow, two nights including tax more than 600 dollars, expensive a little pain of cutting meat, but this is New York!

Of course, it will be much cheaper to live in Brooklyn or Queens, but it will take a long time to travel every day, and the ground transportation expenses will be a lot.

When I arrived in New York, it was more than 1 o'clock in the afternoon, and I established my first impression of New York before I got off the bus, intensive! Yunluo can even imagine himself transforming into a Hubble telescope and looking at this part of Manhattan to see a spectacular and neat forest of steel and concrete, with its tall buildings and narrow streets.

Even at noon during the day, it is difficult to feel the sun on the road, there is far more garbage on the road than in Washington and Maryland, pedestrians run red lights, and vehicles do not avoid pedestrians.

The complexity of the intersection has been halved, but the traffic situation in NYC is still worrying, and the more than 100-year-old subway still runs non-stop despite the smell of damp decay.
