A bright sun greeted us this morning as we checked out of our hotel at 7:30. We drove a short distance and ate breakfast at the Marine memorial. From there we went straight to the Washington memorial and experienced likely the top highlight of the trip for most. We arrived just in time to see Marine 1 land and depart with the President, while we were up in the memorial. Pictures are forthcoming.
After a walk to the north side of the White House we split up. the girls went to the zoo and the guys went to the Georgetown area and campus. Old Glory was supposed to be one of the best BBQ places in town and it did not disappoint. Although some students learned a lesson in budgeting and blew their per diem for the day.
