On December 8 we walked through the middle of the Mall, towards the National Gallery of Art skating rink, then east, to The Capitol, admired the Christmas tree, around the Capitol, by the Supreme Court and the Library of Congress and back towards the Air and Space Museum.

The weather turned out to be much better than expected. Sunny and pleasant. About 49F. Photos coming up soon.

The demonstration was conducted by Marek Zalewski, the founder and owner of Nordic Walking US, with active cooperation from Noel Paige, the Project Director of Urban Communication Tours.
