The Space Shuttle Discovery made a final flyover of Washington, DC today, en route to the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum in Virginia. Patti, Bonnie, Bill and the kids metro'ed down to the Capital to get a great view of the many flyovers this morning. Patrick zipped down to the Washington Monument from work and caught this video. Patrick and Will "saw" the Discovery fly over the house the evening it last undocked from the International Space Station so it was pretty neat to see it in the air for the last time.
While they were there, everyone took the opportunity to enjoy the Capital steps and gorgeous weather.
Maggie slept through lunch and part of the trip home on the Metro with Mimi.
Pop and Will got to see all of the construction on either side of the tracks on the way home. Will kept saying it was his "lucky day." That alone makes all of the work worthwhile.
