It was so amazing to see the breathtaking views looking down from 30,000 feet up in the sky!
On the third day of our trip, my cousins, younger brother, and I explored Washington D.C. Most of the museums were closed due to covid but we were able to still see the Lincoln Memorial, the Vietnam Memorial, Second Division Memorial, the World War II Memorial, the White House, Washington Monument, and the United States Capital.


While we were at the Vietnam Memorial, we had the privilege to meet the Archbishop of Washington D.C. You can spot him (in plain clothes) in the middle of the picture above.
Snuggles, who is studying about World War I this year, was so excited to see the familiar names on the monument and explained what the flaming sword symbolizes to his cousins and me.

I this is a shot in the dark, but that mom in the picture, I will not use her name..... does she have two priest brothers in the FSSP, and graduate from Thomas Aquinas College and marry a grad who now teaches in the DV area at an all boys’ school?

Yes! Three of her brothers are priests and her one brother who is NOT a priest is my husband! :)

What a wonderful post!! Your pictures are beautiful as you outline your adventures. I have followed this blog for a long time, but never commented before. We travel a lot with our 7 kids and really appreciate it when we can share our love of travel with other Traditional Catholics who home-educate. Your quote from da Vinci at the end is spot on! The travel bug is a fierce one that you should never let go! God bless your beautiful family.

A very good first post! Can't wait to read more. P.S. I figured out how to comment on your blog again. I just click on the title of the post and it brings up comments! Yay!!

I was trying to teach my daughter how to comment today and realized what you were saying! The button saying "4 comments" (etc) that used to display at the bottom of each post no longer shows up for some reason and I can't for the life of me figure out how to get it back! I'm so glad you figured out that you can still view/read comments by clicking on the title of each post. God bless!
