Today was ours first day in Washington DC.

We started our tour at the Lincoln Memorial where we met our tour guide Mia. She showed us many memorials including Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson and Martin Luther King JR and also the war memorials from the Vietnam and Korean war. We ended our tour with the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial after that we headed to the mall where we got some lunch and some time to shop some souvenirs and other stuff.

At around 3 pm we went to Mount Vernon where we saw how George Washington lived and how he became the founder of the United States of America. We walked into the cemetery where we saw George Washington’s grave. After we watched an interesting movie in a theatre where it snowed and then we met at the souvenir shop.

After an endless walk of 2 minutes we arrived at our restaurant--the Mount Vernon Inn Restuarant! After the dinner we took the bus back to the hotel.
