A Field Trip on Tuesday, May 12

We started looking at the calendar and there is so much I want to do with Moppy and Pop before the end of the school year, yet our days our numbered. So, today we checked off quite a few things from our list, including visiting the Smithsonian's Natural History and American History museums and lunching at the National Gallery Sculpture Garden. And, we threw in there a ride on the Metro, which at first startled me into silence, but by the return trip I was ready to walk up and down the aisle. We joined right in with all of the school groups that are on the Mall! And, we zipped through exhibits like many of the other visiting students (my mom thinks my attention span is actually better than most pubescent middle schoolers). The highlight of the day was spending time outside; I especially enjoyed the magnificent water fountains and greedy ducks at the Sculpture Garden. I can't wait for our next field trip but first I nap!
