We are at the Ebbitt Hotel in front of White house. President Obama & Michelle just passed us in parade. People are thrilled. What a great day for our democracy. A historic event.

We woke up at 5:15 am to head to the inaugural. We were surprised to see the crowds at the metro. We got out of car to walk to metro station and only had about half hour wait for train. Hoping to reach capital by 7:30 but having train delays. Expect to stand in more lines at capitol. A man on the train said making history ain't easy!
