Christian's boy scout troop has a great leaders that love to go on field trips. They planned a tour of the White House in January. So we got up really early on a Saturday and headed into DC. We all had to get background checks and go through 2 security points to get in the White House. It is funny because Brian years ago remembers driving down the street in front of the White House where now there are gates and guards. The White House was really pretty and interesting that you see so many of these rooms on the news when he is doing briefings and interviews. It was way more tasteful than Buckingham Palace, which I got to tour in 1994. According to one of the secret service said now if you thought this was hard to get into try and get into Buckingham now. The kids liked doing a few of the games in the room like finding all the eagles. I really want to go at Christmas time so that is a project to go then. You can't take pictures inside, but here are few outside.
The Boys scouts
We went to Starbucks after with a few other couples and this was a plaque of the founder of the boy scouts.
