Lead-up to Inauguration.

There's a great deal of talk surrounding the upcoming Inauguration of President Barack Obama, but it cannot be denied that Washington, DC is going to feel like a changed city the morning of January 20th.

Well, just take a look at this breakdown of the traffic routes that day: WTOP Inauguration Traffic. They've even got a handy Google map that shows the road closings - basically overlaying the map of downtown DC with red lines. Bridges closed as well, essentially cutting off the city from Northern Virginia. Living within the city has its advantages. Hopefully walking will be less chaotic. I plan on a photo outing with a friend over the course of the Inauguration events, so those'll be posted around here soon.
