Today I left from New York to Washington DC by bus at 11o'clock.The bus I took is Greyhound and it took me about 5 hours to arrive at Washington DC.When I arrived at Washington DC,I noticed immediatly that this place is not like New York.It is quieter than New York of couse.And also most people obey rules.This place gave me a good feeling.Then,I used uber to go to my hotel.My hotel is called Capitol Skyline Hotel.Later on,I went to eat dinner at Roti Modern Mediterranean.It is very yummy.I reccomend it very much.Last,I went back to my hotel.I had quiet a nice day.

Trip to the Presidents
May 9, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C
Today I visited George Washington Monument,Lincoln Memorial,and the White House.First,I walked from my hotel to the National Mall.Then,I wondered around to see what places I want to go today.Next,I ate lunch near to the George Washington Monument.Later on,I walked to the Washington Monument.I felt the Washington Monument was enormous.It is about 554 foot 7 inches.It was the tallest obelisk from 1884 to 1889.Then,it was overtaken by the Eiffel Tower in Paris.He is remembered because he was the first president and a great leader in war.I took some pictures and then I went to the Lincoln Memorial.There I saw a huge amount of students,adults,and seniors.I felt proud when I was there.It is because Martin Luther King Jr.'s I have a Dream speech happened here.Also because the Lincoln Memorial was there.It is carved by the Priccirilli brothers.
For later,I walked for about half an hour to the White House.I felt that the White House is very crowded.Some people even said bad words against the presidents.The White House was completed at 1800.II played,took pictures,and looked for restaurants here.I rested and saw a bumblebee next to me!😣I was frightened so much that I can't move.For later,I ate dinner at Chopt Creative Salad Co..Last,I went back to my hotel.I had a nice time today.

The National Air and Space Museum

Today I visited the National Air and Space museum.I feel excited when I go in.First, I went in and saw a piece of the moon.I thought it will feel very rough,but it actually feels really smooth.Then,I saw some frames which are talking about navigation at upstairs.I first felt it is funny,and later I felt it is crazy.Later,I saw a computer also talking about navigating.I played for a bit and found it a bit boring.Next,I went back downstairs to the place to play and experience stuff.I went in and found a class to join.I find it very interesting,and almost every hours has one class.The classes I had today has a paper air plane contest,inventing planes, and etc.Here are some stuff I learned
today.The Wright Brothers(the people who first made a successful plane) made their plane's engine out of aluminum.It is because they want the engine to be very light.After the class is finished,I quickly went upstairs again to see stuff again.I saw a water bottle.This water bottle can turn your breath to drinking water.Later,I went to see the inside of the rocket.Quickly I went downstairs again to have a class again.After that,I played a little bit with the stuff there.This process continued like this again and again until I need to go home.Last,I took the last pictures at the National Air and Space for today.I had a nice day.
