Inauguration is Tomorrow!
Yes tomorrow is the big day. Eli and I made a last minute effort to see if Steve King's office had any tickets left. We were put in a waiting list but received word this evening that they had two tickets to the Inaugural Parade for us. It might not be the actual ceremony, but we are quite excited. We will be able to sit down and get closer to Obama than our ceremony-ticket-holding friends will. We are still planning on trying to get a spot in the mall which is open to the public, but may have to leave slightly early to get to our seats for the parade. Departure from our apartment will probably be around 7am and security opens around 8 I think. From there it's two hours of standing before anything actually happens and then another four hours until the parade starts. It could be a very long day-and all this for a president I didn't even vote for haha. But this is an opportunity not to be missed, we just hope we can make it that long without having to go to the bathroom!
