Washington sights

Well following a weekend off from blogging, I had a look around Arlington Cemetery today, where I watched the changing of the guard at the memoral of the unknown soldier. I took a good few photos, I hope they turn out ok.

Tomorrow I plan to attend an Obama rally in Virginia Beach, outdoor and by all accounts it should be huge. Saturday, McCain has a rally just south of DC, so I might try and get to that too.

    I’m really enjoying rading about your time in DC. Brings me back.

    I spent this summer there working on Capitol Hill and generally drolling at the wonderful-ness of the city.

    Hope you have a fantastic time. Let me know if you need any travel advice.
