A Beautiful Memorial
2st May. Our 3rd stop on the National Mall and this is a truly beautiful memorial that leaves you full of gratitude for the amazing men and women that served and fought during WW2. We were fortunate enough to be wandering around the memorial whilst there were a lot of veterans there, a very humbling experience, and nice to see the veterans being so proud and having their photos taken in front of their respective states.

Excellent guided tout
We paid the extra 5 dollars per person for a guided your instead of a self guided your. I highly recommend. Our guide was Don and he was outstanding. While the planes and museum pieces themselves are worth a visit, Don's knowledge and experience provided historical and technical context for each exhibit. We had two teenagers with us and they were both enthralled . It is well worth the time and money.
