Abhi's first monument

Abhi has been to a concert and two beer festivals but never a national monument. It took him almost a year but now he can add to his experience 556 feet up the Washington Monument.


Keshav's cousin Govi visited us last week from Bangalore. He was actually in the US for work in CA and then visited us to get a view of DC (and NYC) before heading back home. He saw lots of stuff last week gone from morning to night everyday. On Friday, Abhi and I spent the day with him in DC to see the Washington Monument. So, Abhi got to to see DC from the highest point. I have never seen it before either so I was up for the occassion. I was not incredibly impressed but it is worth a look and it's free - nice thing about sightseeing in DC. After you have been on top of other landmarks around the world, this one pails in comparison, what can I say. Abhi did have fun. He looked out the windows and talked up a storm.
