Tourist Time

OH-IO! What? No one else?
WWII/Pearl Harbor Memorial. And Emily, Derrick, and Shellie.

Honest Abe.

If the Washington Monument was the Federal Discretionary Budget, the Arts would own 1/4 inch of that building. 

After arriving in DC yesterday, I wanted to be a little touristy. Well, a lot touristy. I can't help it. A few of us decided to see some of the memorials and monuments, and buy popsicles from corner food trucks. Why are there not food trucks on every corner?! The monuments were really beautiful, and some of them were really powerful and a emotionally devastating. The Korean War Memorial and the Vietnam Memorial, especially, were astonishing to see (sorry for the lack of pictures, I was too awestruck to think).

After walking around the city for three hours (believe me, my feet feel it today) and getting lost every hundred feet or so, we decided to call it a night. It was the perfect way to spend the first day here, and I can't wait to keep this trip going.


Who is excited for Alec Baldwin in a few hours?? Gotta get him in an AMP! shirt!
