Nivi
The Capitol in the distance
Sniffer dogs
Obama selling souvenirs?
Buttons and shirts
A couple of blocks from the Mall ..
.. it was still crowded
A cop manning the streets
More cops ..
The young ones .. complete with pacifier
The galant ones with their girlfriends on their shoulders
.. at this point, we had come to a complete stop ..
.. a fan ..
"O" written with smoke flume
Our first view of the Monument in the distance ..
.. in all its glory ..
There were even some who were lining up for the portable toilets
Nivi ..
Towards the White House ..
People ..
.. people ..
.. people of all colors and creeds ..
The jumbotron in the distance
There were some who climbed trees ..
.. huddled in the cold ..
climbing higher for a better view ..
...
People with hats ..
.. hats ..
. and buttons ..
It was beginning to get cold with wind chill
Kenyans ..
Soldiers ..
.. and we were allowed to walk on I-395
.. the author
.. through the tunnel
