We visited Washington DC multiple times before when we lived only 3 minutes away from it, and were excited to show my mom around on her first trip there.

Washington DC was all about US history and museums, and our major stops sure included the major landmarks, including Washington Monument and the National Mall, the US Capitol, Library of Congress, Lincoln Memorial, World War II Memorial, Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, Thomas Jefferson Memorial.

Our 4 year old was thrilled to revisit two of his favorite museums: National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum.

This is the first travel video I made for our US trips.

3 Day Family Trip At North Cascades

We made our first trip to North Cascades National Park over a 3-day weekend.
