DC, Gettysburg, and Philly
Justin's sister, Andria, and her husband, Matt, and their baby, Amelia (aka Millie, Miller, Mills) came out to Baltimore to visit us for Thanksgiving. We took the opportunity to go see some amazing sights in Baltimore, Washington, DC, Gettysburg, and Philadelphia. (Well, I went to work the day they went to Philly.)
The long walk along the Reflecting Pool in the freezing cold wind up to the Lincoln Memorial:
The man himself:
The White House! There were a bunch of presidential-looking black SUVs out front, so we guessed Obama was inside. Did you know you have to request tickets from your representative at least 30 days in advance to see the inside of the White House? We didn't either. So we didn't see inside.
Lincoln at Gettysburg:
One of the many cannons and memorials throughout the 25 square mile battleground:
We got politely chewed out for letting the kids climb on this cannon, by the way.
