Travel Theme: Transportation

This week’s travel theme from http://wheresmybackpack.com/2012/12/14/travel-theme-transportation/ is Transportation. I have many pictures of different kinds of transportation. I am a lover of planes trains and automobiles, not to mention boats! However I think the most unique pictures that I have are from my Washington DC collection so I decided to limit the gallery to just pictures of transportation in Washington DC. Enjoy!

: Getting into DC is always a challenge.

: I-495 is often a parking lot more than it is a beltway.

: Ascending from the bowels of..I mean from the Metro

: An interesting way to see DC The Duck patrol a boat on land….

: …becomes a boat on the river.

: Some houseboats in the Washington Channel

: Paddle-boats on the river surrounding The Jefferson Memorial

: Smart Car might be a smart way to get a parking place in DC but I’d hate to crash in it; it doesn’t look very safe.

: When you are out in about sightseeing sometimes a Red Bull boost is just what is needed.

: There area a few buses made to resemble trolleys that carry sightseers through the city.

: Sometimes the best way to get around DC is to walk!

: I want to try this mode of transportation..one day.

: Bicycles are another great mode for seeing the city but not if you are taking the metro.

: The metro is fast and efficient; as long as NOTHING goes wrong!

: Some brave souls drive.

: Catch a taxi and you can pay to sit in traffic!

: Always a parking problem.

: Several companies offer river cruises. It’s a fun, relaxing, and efficient way to see the sights but unlike the buses you can’t get off if you want to tour a monument.
