U. S. Capitol, Supreme Court and the Library of Congress

We've been here since 2000 and haven't toured the Capitol yet.  Wait....now I can say we have.  Hubby took the day off and we went downtown.  Did a tour of the Capitol.  I made reservations online but we got there about an hour before our scheduled time.  Thankfully, they put us in a tour that was starting in 10 minutes, so we weren't standing around forever.  It's a pretty short tour.  You see the "Crypt", the Rotunda and the old House of Representatives Room.  Beautiful rooms and statues.

Then we walked by The Supreme Court.  Never been by there either.


After lunch we walked through The Library of Congress.  So, so beautiful.  I think we will try to do more of this touristy stuff!  It was fun.
