Zack and Gavin are in DC this week for a fun guys trip. Gavin is a real history buff and loves anything related to the Presidents, so we arranged this for his birthday. They left on Tuesday evening and seem to be having a great time!
They have seen so much! Wednesday they did Arlighton National Cemetery and saw JFK's grave with the eternal flame. That night they went to a Redskins game also. They also went to the Museum of Natural History.
Thursday they went to the White House and Capitol building. It is pretty difficult to get into the White House now. You have to contact one of your representatives and they do a background check on you. It was a self guided tour and pretty quick. For the Capitol tour, one of our representative's aides gave them a tour. Zack said it was really neat. They also went around to the Jefferson, Lincoln and Washington monuments.
Friday they....well let me think. I can't really remember! I will have to update when they get back.
I know that today they went to the ESPN zone (remember that Zack is there too!) and are doing the moonlight tour of the monuments as we speak. It is a bus tour that takes you around to all the monuments while they are all lit up at night. They tell you about them and you get a chance at each one to get out and look around.
They fly home late tomorrow evening! I will be posting pictures I am sure!
