On the first Tuesday after my move I had the opportunity to go into DC and witness the Space Shuttle Discovery make its final flight.
While there I decided I wanted to play tourist. My first stop: The Library of Congress. Despite having visited DC numerous times I have never visited this building and had excitedly been waiting for this day for weeks. Boy was I blown away.

The Library of Congress, outlook from its steps of the Capitol Building, and a statue at the foot of the steps.
I generally enjoy art and architecture. I know next to nothing about buildings and structures but I appreciate when things are made to look nice. I appreciate arches, I appreciate details, and I was completely marveled by what I was greeted with upon walking into the Library of Congress.
Follow the cut for more photos, because I simply can't explain the grandeur, I'll leave it to the pictures to do all the talking.
Myself on the 2nd floor.
