Day 4: Washington DC

Today we started touring the city of Washington. We started the day by visiting the White House Visitors Center. Then moved on to the White House, we couldn't take pictures of the inside but we could on the outside. We all got in without any problems with security! After the White House the bus picked up people to go to the Washington Monument, we decided to walk. The view from the top of the Washington Monument was spectacular! Then we went on our own to see all the memorials in the mall. We made it to the Lincoln Memorial, WW11 Memorial, Vietnam Memorial, and the Korean War Memorial. Tomorrow we will take in the rest.
