Washington D.C. (May 2000)

In May 2000 we spent a day in Washington D.C.  The first thing we did after breakfast was take a tour of the Capital building.  Nick set up before we left.  We were able to see both the Senate floor and the representative's floor.  
We also saw one of the Vice President's offices.  The staff member that gave us the tour was also seeing it for the first time.  This is the inside of the rotunda.  
Each Vice President has bust in the building.  But they were located in one of the many places that we were not allowed to take photos.
After seeing the Capital Building, we headed for the Smithsonian.  We didn't have a lot of time so we chose to see one museum, air and space.  Then we walked the mall towards the Washington Monument
Our next stop, The White House.
When we were viewing The White House, there was a secret service agent on top of the building watching the crowd through binoculars.  You can see him on the left hand side in all black.
Our last stop was Arlington Cemetery.  It was very overwhelming visiting a cemetery of soldiers that gave their lives for their country.
The eternal flame.
