Video Journey

Shawn made this video of our time in D.C. There was a TON of footage (he took his video camera just about everywhere!) but he compiled the highlights and set it to music. I think it is pretty great. I love that we will have this to remember our time in D.C. We have a ton of pictures as well, but this video is pretty special. Enjoy!





The beginning of the video is our apartment complex in Alexandria and the surrounding area. Shawn walked to work down the street in Arlington (right near the Pentagon) so he took some video of the walk through town. We would take the train into D.C. and then we visited all the standard memorials and monuments. We also drove out to the Iwo Jima Memorial in Arlington and visited the Arlington National Cemetary.


Shawn also made a video of our weekend trip to Philly. It has footage of us walking around all the art museums, plus we went to the Franklin Institute Science Museum and visited the special exhibit, which happened to be a traveling Star Wars exhibit. Our hotel was right on the river which looked across at New Jersey. Shawn got several shots of the ships and boats in the river and the bridge that took cars across the river. Of course, a trip to Philly wouldn't be complete without a visit to the Rocky Statue!
