A day in DC


Yesterday Ollie, I, and my mom went to DC. But we stayed in one building the whole time. We stayed at the National Archives. We saw the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. Yes, they were all the actual ones! They were faded and hard to read. The papers were bigger than a newspaper. The Archives is where they keep information about, well... almost everything! They might even have some information about your ancestors. We read some CRAZY letters that people wrote to the President of the United States. One letter asked for the president to send a clean-up crew to clean up his room. Isn't that crazy? Those are just a few examples of what you can see there. We weren't allowed to take pictures, sadly. I found this image on the Internet.
