DC: Iwo Jima Memorial + Netherlands Carillon

Our final stop with the Dicksons was a visit to the Iwo Jima Memorial (Marine Corps War Memorial) in Arlington. We picked up yummy sandwiches from Taylor Gourmet and had a picnic near the memorial and then walked over to the Netherlands Carillon. It was a good chance for the kids to run around in a wide open space (and not get yelled at for climbing on statues like they did on the mall the previous day). It was sad to say goodbye to our friends, especially since the kids were just getting warmed up to each other and having such a great time together. We made the drive home Saturday night, stopping at Sonic for a shake break.
