DC Day 4

This morning I woke up a little late and was in a rush to get ready... had 15 minutes to eat breakfast and meet the group. After we met and got the game plan, we went over and down a few blocks to the metro station and commenced my first ride on a subway (not the sandwich shop...)

(Me and Tori)

The metro goes really fast and is all over the DC area. We went to Capitol South Station which is a few blocks south (duh..) and behind the capitol building. We went on an awesome (short) tour of the Capitol Building then headed over to the Supreme court building right after. We got to sit in the chamber where the court hears the cases and it was pretty awe inspiring. Then we went to the Grant Memorial and had lunch in the bottom of the National Gallery of Art.
