~:[CH5 - Day 42]: ~ Quite Monumental
We woke up at a more decent hour (while still early) and headed to the Pentagon. We were able to take a wonderful tour of the Pentagon and not only was our tour guide a runner, he also gave a fabulous tour that was informative but also very interesting. We also were able to get our own tour group, which was also nice. We ventured off back to the hotel and got some food before heading back out to the Washington Monument. Sadly, when we arrived up at the monument, we were blown away - literally. The winds were blowing so much that the monument closed and so we were unable to go to the top of the monument. Due to the weather, the group decided to opt to do the museums versus the monuments. We headed around before heading back to the hotel to recover before the conference. The first day of committee required a little bit of an adjustment and we had mixed feelings leaving committee; however, I still enjoy spending time with the group and they have continued to make this trip monumental despite all the obstacles we keep facing and for that, I am grateful.
