Washington, D.C.


Our flight to and from DC was really smooth!  We were there to attend the conference hosted by the Family Research Council.  The goal was to help pastors be informed in the political arena.  We heard great speakers like Ken Hamm, David Jeremiah, Ravi Zacharias and many others!  We were given a tour of the capitol building from a religious perspective.  We also walked miles and miles to see all the memorials around town. We learned our lesson the second day and took the subway to all the good spots and to the airport.  Enjoy the pictures!
