So fun! The guide was very knowledgeable and engaging. The family I was traveling with had two kids who hung on her every word. Canden is such a great tour guide. I loved walking right into the Archives via the exit, I felt so VIP. The view down Penn Ave was incredible and heading to the top of the postal tower was the highlight. I really enjoyed the stories about DC history.
