Capital Trees


Today we decided to try to visit some of the places in Washington DC where there are Christmas trees on show.


We started at the Library of Congress with this very tall tree, decorated with a series of books whose titles depicted a particular state.




We were unable to find Virginia, unfortunately.


Leaving the Library of Congress our next stop was the Capitol Christmas tree..


This was a very tall real tree from Alaska.


The decorations appeared to have been made by children out of recycled materials.



From here we moved on to see the decorations at the National Botanic Garden and the National Christmas Tree adjacent to the White House, but will save those for tomorrow..

  1. What a pair of spectacular trees. I like the idea of the books with titles including each state. Quite a lot of thought must have gone into those. Trees do look good in a magnificent hall.
