Shores of the Potomac

An early morning airport run to D.C. to drop off Papi gave us the chance to grab the bikes and ride along the shores of the Potomac River. 

Of all the places to ride a bike, this was not a bad choice.  Now, as far as traffic actually in D.C., not so much fun.  Someone had the bright idea to drive amongst the monuments and maybe grab a photo-op while passing the White House...not so much.  We did see the monuments with somewhat ease; however, the  big house was not so easy due to security and blocked streets / lost tourist (me) / confused driver of our car (me).  The next time I am in a car in D.C. early on a workday morning, I better be chauffeured in a big black limo with a guy named Obama sitting next to me.
