Day 12--Mount Vernon

Mount Vernon

Today we visited George Washington's home, Mount Vernon. We toured the mansion--it was nice, but we did feel like we were prodded through like cattle. (There was a lot of people, and they just moved us along quickly.) We then went on the "National Treasure Tour". We were able to hear about the filming of the movie, plus see different areas where they filmed i.e. basement, ice house, etc. That was a neat extra thing to do.

Wendy and Katy

As a special treat, we met up with Kyle's former teacher, and Wendy's friend, Katy. Katy recently moved to the area this past year. It was fun to see her and her adorable son, Lincoln.
