Witnessing History

Just a few pictures from my trip to D.C for President Obama's inauguration ceremony. let's just say it was mad cold, with 2 million people all trying to get the closest spot to the capitol. Gates opening up at 4 am, 2 hour metro train rides, hiking around alternate routes to designated standing areas, pushing and shoving, and funky people who clearly had no time to shower before heading out, and hearing Obama say his vowes to all of America, making him the 44th President of the United States.

Texas Representative Ralph Hall, after he presented us with our tickets to the Inauguration 2009

Freezing. The night before Inauguration.
We were cordially invited. lol

Our view from where we stood during the ceremony. You should see the mass amount of people who were behind us. Simply ridiculous.
But it was all worth it.
