Segment 2 - May 30th

Thursday we headed for the Library of Congress.  Many of you may remember this building from the National Treasure Book of Secrets movie. Unfortunately the guard would not let us go and see for ourselves whether or not there is a "President's Book".  He looked pretty menacing. haha  It is beautiful and very ornate and you wonder how we were able to build such a building way back when.  It is an actual working library.  They have many original books such as bibles, maps, etc.

Here are some pictures.
