I feel like after yesterday’s post, we all need to remember why we’re doing all this protesting, fighting, and finger pointing.

sunrise of inauguration morning from Union Station
I make a conscious effort to not talk about politics and/or religion. Especially to people I don’t know very well but even more so on the internet. These are two subjects are ones that people feel very passionately about and theres never a right or wrong answer. It always ends up in arguments. But living in the DC metro area, it was pretty impossible to do that this past weekend. So when the opportunity to attend the inauguration of Donald Trump came up, I took it.
To be honest, I had never attended an inauguration before and had no idea what to expect. I just knew that this one was going to be especially interesting. I woke up extra early, stepped out of my comfort zone and practiced my street photography. I also filmed a short video at the very end.
So here it is, what I saw on Inauguration day 2017.
Walking out of the Union Station I saw the first protest. Several crowds of people stood by the fountain.
Each protesting in their own ways.
As we got closer to the entrance, the protests got louder
Inside the Silver gate
People crowded the tv screens
and a lot of space everywhere else
The sights and sounds of the 2017 Presidential Inauguration:

I’m pretty sure I’m out there. I don’t know. We’ll see. No promises.

Scenes like this poppin’ up everywhere in DC. Everyone’s getting ready for the inauguration tomorrow.
Went out expecting a foggy morning and got the total opposite. I ain’t mad thou. Views like this is definietly a welcomed surprise.

I used to always be able to count on parking on 22nd street. It was like my little secret spot to access the Lincoln Memorial easily and conveniently without worrying about occupied parking spots. I guess the people at Capital Bikeshare learned my little secret and decided to put a bike share stand there that takes up half the parking spots. CURSES!!! Now theres never parking there.
Oh well, Roosevelt Bridge is more scenic anyways…
