Our Washington Zriv On May 12, 1958, at 5:30 A. M., a group of sleepy-eyed Seniors,under the supervision of Mr. Aiello and Mrs. Satterlee, left for Washington, D. C. On our arrival in Washington we were greeted by Mr, Batchler who started us off on one of the most enjoyable trips of our lives. We visited Mount Vernon and the Lincoln Memorial. At the Arlington National Cemetery we witnessed the' impressive ceremony of the changing of the guards. The Capitol Building was just as beautiful as we expected it to be. The brave ones who climb- ed to the top of the Washington Monument arrived there breathless, but were thrilled by the view. Everyone enjoyed the trip to the Lotus Chinese-American Restaurant, and those who tried the Chinese food reported it delicious. The five Smithsonian Building s were fascinating. We all wondered how Lindberg had the courage to cross the Atlantic in his Spirit of St. Louis whichlooked so flimsy compared to mo- dern planes . We were disappointed because the U. S. Mint did not give out samples of its product. Rather than the Moonlight Excursion down the Potomac, we went to see Cinerama which was a thrilling experience. After three days of excitement and fun, a group of tired, but happy, Seniors arrived home in Kersey. 38
