Our trip going to our exact destination was at least 1 hour and 10 minutes. It was a 45-minute drive from home to Wheaton Station. From there, we boarded the Metro train going to DC for 25 minutes. Smart idea coz hubby didn't need to drive longer. We got off at Union Station.
We got tickets for DC trolley tour, so the place for their pick up zone was in front of Union Station. Supposedly, this should be our full tour to see the entire DC tourist destinations, but we decided to get a tour inside the Capitol building and we got a 2:30pm batch,so we couldn't leave further.
There were some photos of a bunch of squirrels which I took in front of the US Capitol. They look cute,so I took photos.
National Botanical Garden was close by, so we did a quick visit there as well.
