January 19th: Inauguration Eve

Today is the day before the 44th President of the United States of America gets sworned in, and the streets are still packed from the day before. Alot of the site seeiers were still there and people were the just getting ready for history in the making. Today was a relaxed day after all the fun and excitement from yesterday. Today we just ended up not taking the metro train, we took the car into town today courtesy of Sergio and because of that idea I had we saved money like gieco.haha. As a matter of fact we got there twice as fast. In the way into town we happened to pass by another great landmark, the Pentagon. The building was big and from abroad you can see it was well protected. Today our first task was just to go check out the Vietnam Memorial because auntie wanted to too. There was a long line and I think so because the memorial was a long site period. The memorial was just amazing and it made me think hard about who and why they fought for our country. I admired the site that had 58,000 names and also remembers the soldiers that fought and shedded blood for our country. After we left the memorial we walked down the national mall to check out where we wanted to stay tomorrow, and we happened to see a crowd and me and my cousin decided to go check it out. Gladly it was CNN. There were shooting a news cast Martin Luther King III. I was juiced because I was on t.v. We went home after. Today was mellow day because we have to wake up early and I mean early for the Inaugural meeting tomorrow. Can't wait. GONE
