Day Three ~ Sean O'Connell's Photographs


Waiting for the whole group to gather in the center of the courtyard at the Smithsonian. Chaperones broke up into groups and hit either the Asian Museum, or the African Museum. For those who were adventurous, they hit them both. The exciting part was trying to find the African artwork they have been studying in class.



Sean, that is so cute. This was taken from the Old Post Office, up at the very top. You can see most of the city from up there, if you aren't afraid of heights.




Jasmin and Sean O'Connell outside the Capitol building. We were making our way to the Capitol building to have a tour of the inside and decided to stop for pictures.

Lucas waiting for that same Tram trying to find a smile... He almost has it.

This is one of my favorite photos of the vacation. This is Seans picture of Martina looking for some names she found in the book while sheltering herself with the umbrella from the rain.




Caitlin, Jamie, Amy, Javier, and Heather checking out the Vietnam Memorial together.

Some amazing sights were captured in these photographs, thank you Sean for sharing them with us.
