Arlington Cemetery

Yesterday afternoon I revisited Arlington National Cemetery.  During this visit, I posted as a "mystery tourist" and I have to say that our nation is truly fortunate to have this amazing memorial in our country.  The grounds are pristine and my visit was incredible.  It was a bit crowded, but manageable.  I visited the tomb of the unknown soldiers and watched the changing of the guard ceremony.  My entire experience was wonderful.  I found the visitors’ information center to be very welcoming and the staff very knowledgeable.  This memorial commands the respect of the nation and the way its grounds are kept demonstrate the seriousness and solitude of the memorial.  It is amazing to be at such a serene place with so much history.  The entire experience of this visit for me was outstanding.  It is a quiet place in the middle of a busy city.  It allows one to reflect and be thankful for our nation and the people who have made this country what it is today through hard work, dedication and sacrifice.
