While we were lucky at picking up the Metro at the Van Ness station which saved us some time walking, once we got to the Mall, moving towards the Capitol was a challenge. By 10am, we found a spot on a knoll just in front of the Washington Memorial. Good sight to the jumbotrons and great sound (and a bit of the dome of the Capitol way in the distance.
Before all the crowds moved in but a great view of the Lincoln Memorial
Justin and Carol all bundled up! It was cold but the sun shown on the new President!
There was no way to capture the size of the crowds; they stretched as far as the eye could see, up and down the Mall.
