DC day three

Our 3rd day in DC was a Saturday.  We had breakfast at the cafe next door and then stumbled upon the Alexandria farmer's market where we sampled some yummy fruit.








We headed to Arlington Cemetery which is beautiful in the saddest way.  There is something so powerful about all the tombstones being the same, it is so humbling.






We made it to the Tomb of the Unknowns just in time for the changing of the guard.

We took the train to check out the Smithsonian Zoo where we met some really cool pandas.


We went to mass at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception







Had dinner at We the Pizza (loved this place)



and old fashioned milk shakes at Ted's Bulletin Diner
