You may have received an email sharing a photo stream from both Bruce Fox and myself... These are all individual pictures as they happened directly from our phones. If you'd like me to add any of the picture collages as you see on this blog, please let me know! The link below connects to my stream (not Mr. Fox's); however, if you would like that link as well just let me know! Thanks :)

One last message for students and parents
Thank you to the parents, chaperones, tour guides, bus drivers and most importantly students who made this a successful and nearly worry-free trip! As a final note , if there are any parents out there who would like the photos from this blog (maybe some group pictures that your student's camera didn't capture), please let Ms Thomas know as I can send you any of the images from this blog as individual pictures in an attachment on email.
Parents: on behalf of the chaperones and students, thank you for being the trip's cornerstones!
Students: thank you again for making this trip the best it could ever be! Live from WBUS, I bid you goodnight.

Thomas Jefferson Memorial
As the trip winds to an end, our final stop included one of the most beautiful and iconic memorials to the astounding President Jefferson. The sun setting over the dome and Washington Monument just across the basin was certainly something to behold!
The National Mall
Running out of time, we split up as some students preferred different museums along the mall. Possibilities included the Natural History Museum (pictures below - including the Hope diamond!) and the American History Museum.
We also managed to see...
The Newseum, the Holocaust Museum, and a plaque in remembrance of souls from Flight 93 on Sept. 11, 2001 (not in that order!)
The Capitol
Spent some time touring the Capitol listening to an energetic tour guide discuss the paintings, statues, and history as America fought for a free and balanced government.
