Over the Christmas break we took advantage of the time off and nice weather and went on a 2 day trip to DC. Evan still really loves trains, so we (Jim, Evan, Chris and I) took the 7:40 AM MARC train down to Union Station. We got to walk around the city, ride the metro, eat some good food, visit Dad's office, stay in a hotel (fun for Evan), explore some museums, see 2 Train gardens and the White house!
Evan was really a trooper and kept up with us walking and I only complained a little! :)
