Going to Inauguration

[flamingcarrot]

I got a call from my Congressional representative and I am going to Inauguration! The Secret Service called for the closing all bridges from Virginia into DC and there are expected to be hours of standing around. I am all for it! Bring on the crowd control, the crazy Metro mob scene and a moment in history!

Beginning at 2 a.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 20, personal vehicles (cars, SUVs, pickups, vans, etc.) will not be allowed to enter Washington from Virginia roadways or bridges. The only vehicles authorized are emergency vehicles, buses, taxis and for-hire limos and car services. Personal vehicles will only be able to enter Washington by driving in from designated Maryland routes.
Those going into Washington are encouraged to plan ahead and take public transportation. Be prepared for extremely crowded buses, trains, roads and highways, and prepare for very long delays to get where you are going.
Because some roads and Metro stations will be closed in D.C., you may have to walk long distances to get to your destination.
If you are driving, be sure to have a full tank of gas before you leave so you do not become stranded while waiting in traffic.

I'm so happy you're going. I know you're excited. I'm so happy I'm not going. Seriously.
