14th Day Wednesday 19th September - Washington DC - BY PAULA GISPERT

14th Day Wednesday 19th September - Washington DC

On Wednesday, even the trip wasn't finished yet we could start feeling the nostalgia of these days, all of us were thinking on Friday, when we were going back to Spain. So, to summarize we woke up early and took the metro to have the privilege of visiting the Pentagon, the United States Department of defense who's in charge of coordinate and supervise all agencies and functions of the government concerned directly with national security and the United States Armed Forces. There we went for a walk through some hallways with a guide who explained some details and showed us the indoor 11th September memorial. Subsequently we move 200 meters from the building to the outdoors to see the other 11th September memorial. Afterwards, we took the metro again to go to the last destination, The Arlington National Cemetery where rest in peace 400,000 warriors, which fought for their Country. Besides, there's John F. Kennedy's grave. It was a great and kind of hot day.
