Arlington National Cemetery, Washington DC

We visited Arlington and went on the trolley tour. Our tour guide was excellent with all the history of who's buried here, and how Arlington became our National Cemetery. The moral of the story is pay your taxes if you don't want your land confiscated! I guess the Civil War had a little to do with it also...






Where are we going?? Did I mention it was really really hot? I think Olivia told me that only about 150 million times. You wouldn't think we are from Florida....she acted like she had never been through a summer.. Hang on Olivia we are only one more stop until cooler weather kicks in...



This was the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier



This was Olivia's interpretation of the changing of the guard
