Today was very cool. For all you fans of current events out there, the Reuters office was maybe the most amazing thing I have ever seen. We could see stories being written and sent around the world. The woman there was amazing and what a time to visit a newsroom in DC--24 hours after a new President takes office. UNREAL.
The meeting with Congressman Kagen was also very interesting. He was discussing what it was like to actually get things done in Washington and I felt he was very honest and straightforward answering our questions and giving us some insight into the beltway.
This is my 5th time to DC and there are still new things to see. Some of the old favorites though we saw today--the Lincoln memorial is always impressive and of course the Vietnam and Korean War memorials are very sobering.
The kids today were great and I am not surprised. If we are handing our government to these future congresspeople we are in good hands.
Tomorrow--back to GB.
