Capitol Building

On Friday morning I queued up for half an hour to get inside the Capitol Building. It's not bad, but the only interesting parts (the House and Senate chambers) they don't let you take photos of. Bummer!

Friday afternoon building crawl

Friday afternoon I did another building crawl, seeing the United States Supreme Court, Library of Congress, Union Station and the FBI Building. Being Friday and not a public holiday, the FBI building should have been open, but they decided to have a long weekend and were not reopening til Monday (I flew out first thing Monday morning). Bastards!
