The Inauguration - Day 2

Greetings from cold, crowded and energictic DC! Wow! What a day we have had.

We started the day at brunch with our good friends, the Woods and the O'Briens. A Jazz Band played while we had scumptious food (I had grits - they were wonderful) and caught up on life!

Sir and I headed to The Mall to check out the action in the afternoon! The whole atmpsphere at "We Are One" was quite an amazing experience. The bands were great. The lawn was packed with people young and old. The minute Obama took the stand, you could of heard a pin drop.

Walking back to the hotel we saw so many interesting sights. Sir and I waited for over 30 minutes for the Obama's to return to Blair Street. While waiting, Sir meet Michelles hairdresser from Chicago. He was trying to get through security - out came the passports trying to prove his importance!!

Tonight we attended the Inaugural Celebration with Democratic Governors at the Corcoran Gallery of Art. We entered to a sea of music, food, drinks and people. We were able to to through the Richard Avedan Photography Exhibit. With JJ Grey and Mofro playing in the background it was fun to leisurely walk through the exhibit - his work is amazing! I saw the Governor of New Mexico, Bill RIchardson. I don't know who else I saw! There were so many people there!

We hopped a taxi home - our first of the trip - and I am here to tell you goodnight and enjoy the pictures!
