So much so that I had to stop at Target and buy my own umbrella!
This morning we waited in the rain for our tour of the White House that never happened. All tours were canceled. They never announced why so it just makes me wonder what came up exactly?! We were very disappointed, but there is hope that it still might work out sometime this week. Keep your fingers crossed!
Here is a picture of the closest we could get to the White House for now.

A picture of us and our cute umbrellas with the capitol building behind us!
We went on an amazing tour giving by Sen Brownback's only intern at this time (who is from Massachusetts!). He gave us the underground tour and since there was just the two of us we got to skip around the big public tours and take private staircases. It was very top secret. Did you know that there is an underground "metro" from the senate buildings to the capitol building? Did you know that there are elevators to be used by senators only? There are a million other fun facts we learned and I of course can not remember to repeat.

Looks like a great trip! I went on a school trip in high school so your pictures bring back great memories. However, I didn't get the private tour. Next time I'm traveling with you!
Sounds good Hillary! Let's go!
