I am so impressed with your extensive vacation. It looks like so much fun. I've wanted to see all those places. My cousin lives in the Shenendoah Valley in Harrisonburg, VA and it would so fun to visit there. I've been to Washinton dc, but not all the places you did! Good for you, takes a lot of endurance to see all the sites with little ones in tow.
