Arlington Cemetery

Rainy and dreary set the tone perfectly for our first trip to Arlington Cemetery.  



City girls metro, of course




Welcome Center


The bugle played at President Kennedy's funeral





President Kennedy's gravesite, the eternal flame

President Kennedy




The sweetest soldier who stopped and asked if he could have his picture taken with these two sweet girls


Tomb of the Unknown Soldier




The girls got to witness the changing of the guard, which was super cool!  They were clicking their heels for a week.
 


Before we left we had to find our friend Kelly's father.  It was a very full, emotional, and educational field trip that was enjoyed by all three of us!
