Day 5 - Off to Washington, D.C. (Maike)

It would be our last day in New York City.
At 9am we had breakfast and after  cleaning our rooms and packing our bags we walked to a station and took the train to the next bus stop. The bus brought us to Washington D.C. After a 4 1/2 hours long trip by bus we arrived at 5:15pm in "D.C". We had a few problems to find our hostel but at 7pm we finally checked in. Two hours later we walked along the National Mall. The National Mall is a collection of parks, buildings and monuments for example the Capitol and the statue of Abraham Lincoln. We started taking a lot of photos in front of the Washington monument. We had a beautiful view there and we could see the big difference between New York City and Washington D.C., because New York was full of people and buildings. We were very tired, so we went back at 12am. The day was hard but very nice as well. All of us were falling asleep quickly. That was our 5th day.
