Its already our third day here and our group had the opportunity to celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day in our nation's capitol. There were about 20 or more of us that took the metro to Anacostia, an area we were not to supposed to go to which I thought was pretty funny. Being able participate in the peace walk today and witness it was a wonderful experience. Signs everywhere and people walking hand in hand celebrating a man that made history was a beautiful sight to see. Afterwards, we all went our separate ways and my group ended up heading to Dupont Circle and had some awesome burgers at BUGR. Then we walked all around and got a bit lost and finally found the White House and took selfies obviously. From there, we headed to the Washington monument, reflecting pool and Lincoln memorial. We did not realize how long the the reflecting pool was and automatically regretted our decision to walk the entire way home. It was the best first memory being here. Those 15 miles of walking was well worth it.
