| The Capitol |
A gorgeous day in D.C. today. We started with our tour of the Capitol building. It is very beautiful, even though they were doing renovation on the rotunda, so we couldn't see some of it.
Then we went over to the Library of Congress and went on a tour. Again, it was amazing. To think that there is over 532 miles of books there!
Next, we walked 16 blocks to the White House. We were lucky enough to get a tour. It was neat to think of all of the history of this building, and reflect on our past presidents.

| Visiting Abe |
It was then time to meet up with our friends, the Lees, for lunch. Since it was such a nice day outside, we walked to the Washington Monument, and down to the Lincoln Memorial. Along the way, we saw the World War II Memorial and the Vietnam Memorial. Then it was time to head back to the car and get some gelato along the way. It was a pleasant, yet tiring day.
