A beautiful day in New York.

Philadelphia

Liberty Bell, check; Constitution Hall, check; Rocky statue, check.

Capitol Steps

We spent the morning touring the Newseum and the US Capitol building. Now, we are off for a quick stop is PA and then to NYC!

Wreath Laying Ceremony

This was really a moving experience for many of the kids. They were all respectful, and represented WMS well.

White House

What an absolutely beautiful day for a walk in Lafayette Park.

Let's try this again

Here's hoping the picture comes through....I think I need some sleep!

Day 1 - Wellesley arrives in DC

Our trip down was fairly uneventful, which is totally fine by me. Today was the Cherry Blossom parade, so the city is packed to say the least. Our bus driver braved heavy traffic to get us to the Holocaust museum in time for an hour of touring. Now, we have a few minutes for souvenir shopping while we wait for dinner at Hard Rock Cafe. An added bonus is that the restaurant is next to Ford's Theatre, which is where the group shot was taken. I think we will all be ready for some R&R tonight when we get to our hotel.
