What a trip! Going up to Washington D.C. was a very good experience. One of the two main places I wanted to go to was the Lincoln Monument and Arlington National Cemetery. The Lincoln Memorial was my favorite place to visit, because I love him and he has done a lot for our country. Abraham Lincoln is a very interesting man to learn about. I also loved the Arlington National Cemetery, seeing all of those tombs of the unknown soldiers made me respect them even more that what I did. I would also like to thank the people that help supported my school on going this trip. I will impact my life for a lifetime. You will be very well blessed.
Thank you, Zinda Hart

Washington D.C. was great! We saw lots of sculptures buildings, people and memorials. My favorite place was the white house. We didn’t see President Obama, but it was nice seeing the white house. We also took plethora of pictures. I also liked riding in the plane. It was very sublime! IT was most beautiful at night seeing all the memorials while in the air. D.C. was lit up everywhere. Once we reached a high altitude my ears felt clogged and I had to pop them. I thought it was going to be scary, but it wasn’t. I had a plethora of fun. Thanks to all those that donated to help make this trip possible.

Wow, what a great trip we have had. We visited so many places and saw many beautiful views. I never knew Washington D.C. would be so amazing that I would like to move there. So, I had so much fun and saw so many amazing things, I would like to move there. We went to a lot of different places, to name a few; Gettysburg, Arlington National Cemetery, the White House, The Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, and Different Museums.
My favorite part was the Holocaust Museum in Daniels Diary. This made me feel terrible. The concentration camps and all the events that took place were horrible. This was a great trip, and thanks for the ones who helped pay for this trip.

Well we worked with the Close-Up organization. We had a great time. We saw the Lincoln Memorial, Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial, Smithsonian Air and Space Museum, as well as Gettysburg. We also saw the Battlefield of Gettysburg. We had so much fun. Every Memorial we went to we had a conversation about the memorial. We were never bored. We even played games to get a better understanding of what we were learning. One of my favorite places was seeing the White House. It was a beautiful sight to see. I want to thank all the people that donated to help us go to D. C.

“Oohs and Ahhs”, we were traveling the minds of the students. We went to the capital of our nation, Washington D. C. Some people had a neat experience from flying. On the first day we went to Pennsylvania to walk the historical site of the Gettysburg Battlefield and learn about the Gettysburg Address that President Lincoln gave. We went to many other memorials, such as the Jefferson, Lincoln, F.D.R., Civil War veterans, and the Vietnam Veteran Memorials. We also went to the Washington Monument. We traveled to the Arlington National Cemetery, which is where our 1960”s President Kennedy, and his family are buried. Surprisingly we went to the “unknown soldiers” tomb and had a ceremony. When we finished traveling for one day we would take a break for lunch or dinner at museums and malls. The trip was spectacular! Sometimes it was tiring and cold but it was worth it! It’s better than not running on a battlefield for freedom.

We had a sublime time! When I first got on the plane I thought I was going to be scared, but I wasn’t. Then we drove to the hotel when we arrived in Washington D. C. The teachers, Ms. Hilary and Mr. Jon, showed us what we were going to do after the last tours we took. We were very tired after each day. My Favorite place was the Arlington Cemetery. I showed honor and respect to the people who died for our country. There were also a lot of veterans that showed up at the cemetery. Then we say the Kennedy’s gravesites. John F. Kennedy was buried with his wife and his two children. We also say Robert E. Lee’s house. It was very big. Thank you for letting us have a chance to go to Washington D.C.

Yayyy!!! Washington D.C., that’s an amazing place to visit! Washington D.C. has a lot of history, everything was fascinating. My favorite part was the war memorials. The WWII and F.D.R. was pretty interesting and I learned a lot. It may have been chilly weather but we still did great. Some people were there from the Vietnam War. A few of those people told us about the war. The Korean War was interesting also because of the wall with all the people’s names on it who fought and died during those years of service. It was pretty cool and I liked it! My other favorite part was the Lincoln Memorial. I really enjoyed it and I liked it a lot. The Martin Luther King, “I had a dream” speech was there and it took place there. President Lincoln was made out of marble that came from Georgia. It was huge and shiny, but it was super nice. I enjoyed my time there. It was a lot of fun! My time in Washington D. C. was fun and I wish we could have stayed longer! We went about almost everywhere. I learned so much, it is hard to explain it all. Washington D. C. is busy, large, and confusing, but a lot of fun! You should visit there some time. I guarantee you will have a blast like we did. This was a great opportunity for us and we want to thank everyone!
