In order to obtain a different perspective of Washington, D.C., we decided to join a cruise along the Potomac River, the fourth largest river along the Atlantic coast that encapsulates the capital city.
Departing from the Washington Marina, …
… disappointingly, there isn’t really much to see during our one hour cruise.
Other than the Washington Monument that is always visible from any angle, the city’s skyline is pretty much flat.
Luckily, the tour guide did pointed out to us some interesting buildings. They include the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, …
… the Presidential Helicopter Base, …
… Roosevelt Hall (which houses The National War College) at Fort Lesley J. McNair, …
… and Fort Myer’s 26 Victorian-styled home (also known as General’s Row).
I guess the most interesting part of the cruise was when a helicopter flew past us.
And of course, the question that everyone asked was, is that the President inside the Marine One?
