Today was a fairly nice day, quite warm actually 47F, and so I went out to get to know my new home town. I thought it to be a good idea to see the monuments, some of them, and explore the city by foot and Metro.

I started out going to the Washington Monument Memorial, walked to the Capitol, back to the Monument Memorial, over to the World War II Memorial and then to the White House. That was more walking than I anticipated and now my feet hurt a bit. My trusted Salomon hiking shoes went bust (after 8 years) and I had to wear my sneakers which are not much younger. I need new walking shoes.

Despite the shoe issue it was a fun time. The photo here was made at the World War II Memorial. The water in the Reflecting Pool was partly frozen. Something hard to resist.
