Was up at 7.30am and got ready and went to breakfast with my new friend Iain at the Waffle Shop which was and old style diner with waffles and Chinese food on the menu, which was amazing and you couldn't ask for a better way to start you day off with a huge plate of Waffles and Syrup. ThenI said goodbye to my friend Iain as he was off to Boston for 3 days and will see you in New York City.
Then I crossed the road from the Waffle Shop and walk into the Ford Theatre to hear about the night Abraham Lincoln died, amazing story and good to see how and where he was killed, then I went to The Spy Museum and did the tour for US$15, which I really enjoyed but I didn't think it was worth the price, but good to see.
Then walked around town had some lunch and went to Chinatown and looked around and because it was raining I went to the movie The Guardian at 1.05pm and it was amazing movie and so real and down to earth America Art and Portraiture Museum

. When that finished I went to the Museum of Portrats and Moderian Arts, I spent and hour looking around and really enjoyed and Moderian Arts part of the Museum favorite part was the 280 TV screens playing moments from the 1992 Barcalona Olympics and I got a picture of the New Zealand Flag I only had to wait 8 minutes and the it take 4 hours to go right from start to finish.
After the Muesum I chilled out at this local burger bar for dinner and then walk around the National Mall starting with the Capital Building and getting some night pictures of all the sites of Washington DC. It was amazing night not to cold and not to hot, and I got back to the Hostel at 9.00pm packed my bag and went straight to bed.
