We started the day with. 6 a.m. wake up call. We had breakfast and were off to Arlington National Cemetary. There we saw the Kennedy Gravesights, and Robert E. Lee's house. We also witnessed the changing of the guard, and four of our fellow youth tour friends got to lay a wreath at the tomb of the unknown. We went to the bureau of printing and engraving, and went to mount Vernon for lunch and a self guided tour. We got a tour of George Washington's house, and a national treasure tour! Not to mention the downpour while we were there! We got to rock our souvenir Mount Vernon Raincoats! It's literally turning into Iowa out here! (Haha!) Then, we picked up our five guys burgers, talk about mmmm mmmm good! Finally we went to the 9-11 Pentagon Memorial, Air Force Memorial, and Iwo Jima Monument.
Tomorrow morning is our early morning run with Senator Grassley!
Stay tuned!
