Visit to Washington D.C.

Arlington National Cemetary

The archway into the cemetary	We visited Arlington, first. At times sad, at times a little outraged at the clowning around, especially the disrespect from our foreign visitors. Always Proud to have served with such selfless people who gave so much.

National Archives

We did not go inside - this trip was a constant juggling of transportation, time, and available walking energy. We had to be "PlanBDextrous"

Library of Congress

The Reading Room

Supreme Court

No one was home

The Capitol Building

We were not allowed inside, unless we were part of a tour group.
Police with sub-machine guns prevented anyone from getting close.	I took a photo of the neat Sportster Police bike; the officer didn't appear to want his photo taken.
