Back from D.C.

Well, I have been back from D.C. for nearly a week, but because of my busy schedule I have not found time to blog. Our trip to D.C. was a blast. We could have spent a month there! There was so much to see and do! We barely skimmed most of the Museums! The air and space was a lot of fun, and so was the museum of American History. The Museum of Natural History, had a very nice insect display, and insect collection, but had WAY too many evolutionary displays. I would suggest both. The Museum of Natural History, had a very nice insect display, and insect collection, but had WAY too many evolutionary displays. The Holocaust Museum was very somber, and informative, a good one to go to once. The postal Museum was both fun and informative. Arlington Cemetery was amazing to see, especially the changing of the guard, in the snow. I would not suggest the American Indian Museum, as it was a bare museum. I would have liked to see the Air and Space Museum's hanger, but we were unable to due to not enough time. I also had a blast at the Inauguration. The security was amazing! We were in the Yellow standing area, and so we weren't to close to the president (about 1/3 mile from him). We were at least able to see him (well, kind of), and be able to say we were at the event. We were privileged enough to get a free tour of the capitol, given by a staffer of senator Kohl’s office. It was a fun tour, and had a lot of history to it too! We also had the privilege to join nearly 100,000 others in the 32nd March for Life. On the way home we went by Gettysburg, which we could have spent days at also. I need to thank the Stinnetts for kindly hosting us in Maryland, close enough to D.C. to drive every day. Over all, our trip was VERY enjoyable! I would suggest a trip out there, to anyone who is a US citizen!
