Washington, DC

Its the last day of the trip and it is an incredibly bitter sweet feeling. We had 30 miles and the skies were clear the whole way. We arrived at George Washington University around 9:30 AM and had an hour and a half to wait for our arrival to the Capitol. We got to see two other Purdue Pi Kapps who now work for the national fraternity. 11 AM came quick and we got in line behind the vans and police escort to head up Pennsylvania Ave to make our way to the Capitol. It was 90 degrees but somehow I still got goosebumps. James and I rode third in line. It was an incredible feeling to just see the monuments and finally see the Capitol building. There were hundreds of spectators awaiting our arrival. We finally made it to DC and after listening to a few speeches and team pictures it was time to finally see my family and friends who came to see me. This was the summer of my life and an incredible experience that I will remember for my entire life!
