Dream Trip 2008: July

Great Travel Moment

During 2007 I took two different trips to Washington, D.C. Both trips included a visit to Arlington National Cemetery and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. I always stay for the changing of the guard ceremony. I watch the people fill the stairs then quickly leave to find another site to see - because they came to see the ceremony. However, the real attraction is who is buried in the tomb. Yes, I admire the ever diligent guard but equally the soul inside the tomb.
