Day 2 of exploring DC!


So now I am sitting in the bus and listening to "Coldplay" on our way back to the hotel. It's such an awesome song which reminded me that I am so lucky!

So lucky to be a part of this trip, this people, this country!

Second day in Washington DC, in the capital of America, now I understand why it's the capital of everything. It's
such a beautiful place full of historical items. Unforgettable feelings about this day, not sure that will fall asleep..yeah, I am that excited :)  

   

First "page" of this fairy tale is the Capitol Building! We walked up to the steps and had a beautiful view of the National Mall. Then we went to the Library of Congress which give you a goosebumps from the first minute of your time there and till the last one. It's so beautiful! So many intelligent minds in this building--all these amazing authors and important books... It was very powerful!

Next stop: the White House! Home of president of America. First thing that comes to your mind is "why it's so small?" Ahah, but when you understand that all presidents lived there and were a part of this house, it makes it seem much bigger and more important...those walls know a lot :)

Now my favorite part of this day -museums! But espesially National Museum of Art which contains best of best artist works--da Vinci, Monet, Van Gough! Also, if art is not your thing, you could go to different museums like the National History Museum or the Air and Space Museum.

And the last "paragraph" of the day was dinner in a very cozy American Italian restaurant with yummy food :)

I am so blessed and happy to be here.

Peace . Love . Rock and Roll
