16 April 2026 Washington DC: Raelyn's Day Lunch at Pho 54

 


Raelyn picked a Pho place for lunch and we walked through the National Gallery of Art's Sculpture 
Garden on the way.  Cool art and some benches in the shade made the walk a little easier. At lunch Evan had chicken and we all had pho.  The place was packed and there were no tables open when we arrived.  Leslie and the kids stood in line and I scoped out a table where the single patron was finishing up.  We were entertained by the kids recreating a youtube video with the punch line "chicken chicken chicken" The meal was great and then we were off to the Spy Museum
