First Day

Hello everybody,

We made it! After landing, Diane's cousin Sheryl picked us up from the airport (Thank you Diane!). Sheryl was very nice and took us around downtown D.C. We have already seen the memorial and the capitol building, as well as the outsides of some of the museums. It was great to see everything so lit up. We got to see the podium from which Obama will watch the parade (pics to come later). The house we are staying at is beautiful and we can take the metro anywhere we want to go.
Today we spent time with Kathy and her friends. We went all around Dupont Circle and had a great lunch, plus awesome cupcakes. We had a really hard time finding internet. It is not too cold here, but we still have to walk around bundled up. Luckily, there are lots of shops we can go in to get warm. It has been a great day so far!!

Will update soon,
Love,
Angelee and Rowan.
