Adventures in DC: Arlington Cemetery

On Wednesday, we decided to go to Arlington Cemetery. It was the first big thing we saw out here. And it was HUGE! It was very cool to go around and look at the monuments and see Arlington Manor (or whatever it's called). At the top of the hill, where Arlington Manor is, you could see, like, all of DC. It was a beautiful view.


In front of the Women's Memorial, which was really neat. It featured historical views of women in the military, and it was fun to see.


At the Memorial for Unknown Soldiers. We saw the changing of the guard. Guards are present at this memorial for most of the day, 6 or 7 months out of the year. You can see one in the background of this picture.
