Two student groups met up in Chicago (where there was 9 inches of snow and it was -12 degrees!) on a layover and happily arrived in Baltimore at noon on Friday.
The JROTC and cheerleaders group was already in D.C. checking out the museums so the new arrivals bundled up and headed out from the hotel for the walk to the Smithsonian's American History Museum. The first venture outside in 12 degree weather (reported from 8 - 15 degrees!) was a jolting impression of D.C. weather. Happily, it was much warmer inside the museum.
Even the chaperones enjoyed the exhibits in the museum.
The last group arrived at the hotel at about 6:45 p.m. just in time for a group dinner and an early lights out!
