Washington DC day Two

Started the day the same as yesterday. Taking a bus then the train to DC. Today we went to the Holocaust Museum and stayed there for over two hours We were able to get the tickets that allows you to go to all the floors of the museum. What a horrible time, the images are hard to look at and for sure you should not forget what happened to the Jewish people.
 The only disappointment was the crowds. People everywhere.

They made Jews wear a star to identify themselves.

Many pictures like this

The ovens that they used.
 After the Holocaust Museum we spent the rest of the day visiting the Smithsonian's. American History, Natural History, and Air and Space.
