Washington DC August 17 thru August 18, 2005

We arrived in Washington DC on Wednesday and found a beautiful RV Park about 10 miles from downtown. We decided to ride the Harley to visit the Wall and other monuments. This turned out to be a terrible decision. It was extremely hot and humid. Manuevering downtown DC with all the traffic and security barricades was challenging to say the least. We decided to take a tour bus the next day to see the rest of Washington DC. The air conditioned bus was a great idea because Thursday was just as hot as the day before. This city is truly the heartbeat of our nation.
