Camilla's DC Blog
Camila’s Second Blog On our first day in Washington, th e wake up call was at 6:30 a.m. Most people didn’t sleep well, and I heard someone say that he thought the hotel was on fire and that the wake up call was the fire alarm. Breakfast was on the lower level at 7:00. Then, we met our tour guide Chad, and went to the bus. We started the day by going to the Martin Luther King Jr Memorial, the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial, and the Thomas Jefferson Memorial. Then, we went to some museums. In the Natural Histor y Museum, Chad told to go see the Hope diamond. In the American History Museum, we had to find Abraham Lincoln’s hat. Next, we went to the African American History and Culture Museum before going to take a look at the white house where Chad told us about a protest that has been going for years, and that we could ask the people in the tent who would be happy to tell us. Also, we saw someone important going in to the white house, but we didn’t know who it was.
