We went to Arlington Cemetery and that place was one of my favorites of the whole trip.
It is such a sacred place where you really are able to see a glimpse of how many have sacrificed for this country.
It's very humbling and I was filled with so much gratitude.
Not only did these people sacrifice but their family and friends as well.
The Tomb of the Unknown Solider. We were here for about an hour.
They have a changing of the guards every half hour and I am amazed at the guards dedication.
I greatly thank all those who have served or are serving our country and for every sacrifice you are making.
We went to another Air and Space Museum and this one was way cool!
Real artifacts again!
See that rocket behind us? That exact rocket actually went into outer space!
Actually seeing things like this make my jaw drop and I think how awesome America is!
This is a spy plane that could go from one side of the country to the other in about 4 hours.
How incredible is that?
Once again the rocket that went into space.
We have so many pictures of this.
I loved it, but Andrew loved it more and wanted a picture at every angle ;)
We went to the Washington DC temple afterwards
which is actually in Maryland.
Look how beautiful it is!
We were planning on going inside but it was closed for reconstruction.
^See what I mean?^
We went to the Visitors Center that is right next to it though ;)
And we're goofy so here's a picture of how we act most of the time.
After our tourings we went to go to Cafe Rio.
Got lost.
Even with a GPS because those roads are confusing and exits come quick!
But we evenutally found it and were fed.
Then we went to the hotel and went to bed!!!
One more day of DC to come!!! (oh and a little video I put together)
Looking at these pictures wants me to back and experience it all over again!
DC is so special!
