Iwo Jima Memorial

The famous memorial

Today was a glorious day with blue skies and warm temperatures. Andrea and I felt moved to take on the role of tourists in our own town. First stop: the Iwo Jima Memorial. We had driven by it many times over the years but we had never stopped to get closer to it.

The memorial is near Arlington National Cemetery on the Virginia side of the Potomac River. We had a lovely view of DC from the memorial.
