The Capitol

After traveling all around Washington DC, we finally camped out near our nation's capital and spent time visiting the District.

Our first stop was the Capital. Inside the building was absolutely amazing!

We saw the old Supreme Court.

And the old Senate chamber.

And the old House chamber. The House didn't get the respect of having it's area roped off and preserved like the others. Inside were various statues. Each state has 2 statues of famous people from their state.

California's statues were Junipero Serra, and good old Ronald Reagan.

Unfortunately, the Rotunda was having some repairs done. But even despite that, it was stunning.

The murals were stunning.

The paintings were enormous and originals.

We had a great tour and even got to put our feet on the center of Washington DC!

The Capital definitely pumped us up!
