Mr Lincoln and Mr Obama by Rohan

Hi miss Wells, I have been in Washington DC this week. Washington DC is the capital of the US just like Canberra is the capital of Oz. I walked all the way to the White House where president Obama works. I even got to go in an office nearby and sit in his Oval Office with Jack. The best bit of the day was going to the Abraham Lincoln Memorial. It was great and his statue was huge. Afterwards we hired some bikes and rode over the river to Arlington cemetery. This is where all of the young soldiers who have died in war are buried. There are thousands and thousands of white grave markers in the cemetery. Pretty sad  and i think it is unforgivable to lose that many people.
Our hotel was next to the fire station and they had an awesome car parked out front. It was a dodge camero. Very cool! I will write again when I get to New Orleans. Stay tuned for cool stuff when I get back and let me know if there is anything I can get for you. Cheers from Rohan

  1. Great pic of you and Dad at Lincoln Memorial, shows how very huge the statue is, thanks Ro. Pleased to see Jack fitting in comfortably with The West Wing lifestyle. Arlington Cemetery is sad, but its good you visited and thought about the soldiers.
