On the road again

We arrived to Miami on Monday (15.10.12) evening and drove to Palm Beach for one night. Then we had a finnish breakfast in Palm Beach bakery and cafe. It's a small, finnish owned cafe where they have real finnish bread and pastries (also ruisleipaa). Maija managed to find the place from Yelp.com.

Our next destination was Washington DC. We took a hotel in Pentagon/ Crystal city, Virginia which was cheaper option than Washington DC. Hotel was about 10 minutes walk from Pentagon. There were two metro stations near hotel and it took about 15 minutes to get to Smithsonian by metro.  We checked out all main tourist attractions and visited also  Smithsonian Air and Space Museum and National Museum of Natural History and United States Botanic Garden. All places we went were free of charge that makes Washington DC a very nice tourist destination.

Quite a big percent of americans do not believe that this little thing in front of Maija is the ancestor of all mammals  inthe world.

Next we went to Polyface Farm, Virginia to see happy farm animals. Polyface farm is known from documentary called Food inc. Check it out for more information.
