Washington D.C.

We went to the capitol building on Thursday the 8th May. Dad and Mum had arranged for us to have a personal tour of the capitol with their congressman's office. His name was Jerry Costello and his office person was Katie. She did a really good job helping to point out things we would have missed if we had gone on our own! Below you will see a picture of the kids beside a bust of George Washington, the 1st President of the USA. Also, their is a star on the floor that is the very centre of Washington D.C. We met with Katie across the road from the Capitol building where the tour began. Then we got to walk underground to cross the road and into the building. After the tour finished, we got to ride on a train back across the road (all underground!)
