The Awakening Sculpture

Visited National Harbor on a spur of the moment invite. We had so much fun!

Kids ran and climbed all over the Awakening, we rode the Capital Wheel, visited the Peep Store (yes, those Peeps), and had a fantastic brunch! The Air Force Band was playing in the park.

Beautiful spot! Fun for family.
