If you are wondering whether to visit the national memorial arboretum, just do it! Visited for the first time a few days ago and it was overwhelming. A wonderful setting in which to remember the tragedy and heroism of so, so many people.
It was impossible to take it all in with just one visit but still thinking about it days later. From a botanical point of view it is wonderful too.
Managed to find a memorial relevant to the family which was moving.

Was wet so did train round. Half of commentary did not match up to stops. Hard to see some the the points they talked about. Would have been better to have used buggies.

First time we used a buggy, saved carrying band instruments. St John service went well and they saved us some food. Weather good, an enjoyable day.

Andrew is a 92 years old KSLI Rifleman who was sent to Korea at 18 years old. He wanted to see what the memorial was for his old regiment.
So we took a Taylor Made Buggy Tour - Wonderful. We had a lovely guide, Jane, who made sure Andrew got to visit all the important place to him; and also gave us loads of information on others memorials and how all the trees, settings had so much meaning. So much attention to detail.
All the people, staff & volunteers were relaxed, helpful which adds so much to a place.
Need to visit again in a different season to see the daffodils & pink cherry trees in blossom for a different feel.
We had a breakfast roll & free car parking included. We had a light lunch and then went on the train just for fun ! Again, the lady was great, looked after us with good care.
Even if you have no military contacts -
there's something here for YOU !

Love the arboretum and think it well worth a visit. When I came previously the last post and history talk were given at the same time. I took my sister in law with me this time and as she has visited Arlington. I was keen for her to know how it had in part, inspired the NMA. We had the last post and partial talk given at 11am but had to go back at 12.30pm for the next part. We were the only ones who went back. It disjoints the day somehow, it doesn't fit right. It was better the way it was done before. Would have given 5 stars but for this.
