Monday was the day we got to tour the White House. Before we went though we had the opportunity to meet with the President and CEO of the American Dental Hygiene Association down in D.C. and hear them speak. It was a really neat experience and very empowering!
After that we made our way over to the White House
It took forever to get through all the security points but once we finally did we were so excited to be on the grounds of the White House
The secret service cars
The Marine standing outside the doors of the Oval Office indicated that the President was inside his office
The front side of the House
Looking from the inside-out
Down the hall of the East Wing
These were some of the pictures on the walls down the East Wing hallway
This was my favorite picture: John Travolta and Princess Diana dancing inside the White House
Hallway on the ground floor
The Library aka "the men's sitting room"
Chandelier made of wood
What is this long pole that was just sitting in the corner of the room?
A ladder
The section of books on religion. I searched high and low for a Book of Mormon but couldn't find one...
