oh keeping them in line wont be a problem at all for me.....they know better and they know my tolerance for antics is very very low.....and I do a spring week long field trip every year with them, so this is nothing new..we have a 3 year rotation of Cape Cod, Montreal, and DC.....lot of the kids are here in this town as aspiring Olympic skiers and snow boarders, so traveling is very much in their comfort zone...still..kids will be kids...and all which goes with that!
there are 4 adults going..we dont let parents go...they just make things worse...LOL

Have a great time! The weather today in DC was perfect---and is supposed to be great for the next few days--70 degrees and suny, chance of T-storms, and cool at night. I'll be working in DC tomorrow and Tuesday, and will keep an eye out for a SBH tanned guy with 25 kids in tow!

what a day.....first we visited our state Senators office:
then we went on a search to find our two state statues in the Capitol building
and Senator Ayotte provided us a guide to show us the rest of the sites in the building and took us over to the Capitol from her office in some underground tram which made us bypass the loooooong security line at the Capitol entrance ( we had already cleared security to get to Senator Ayottes office
then went to check out the Supreme Court
but the coolest part of the day was the 3 hours spent in the Newseum...i could have spent all day there without any problem and want to go back.....the 9/11 floor was beyond belief in scope and depth.....here is the recovered radio tower from the top of the North Tower

What wonderful things for the class to see! I am so moved seeing the radio tower that is displayed. A week of feelings that began with the Discovery flying over New York. The new World Trade tower passing in height the Empire State Building. The anniversary of the Seals successful raid on Bin Laden. The pictures of the new tower and Ricky's report, and now seeing this museum piece. WOW!
I am on overload but so proud of how much has happened these past ten years. The American spirit is alive and well.
God Bless America...
