But there wasn\u2019t really much to look at\u00a0 &#8211; lots of hallways and doors, as well as Starbucks, Godiva, and a DOT driver\u2019s license station. The one place where we paused briefly was the Memorial to those killed during the attack on the Pentagon on September 11, 2001.<\/p>\n<p>On our way back to the city we stopped at Arlington Cemetary. We didn\u2019t have a lot of time, so we took the Tourmobile Hop-on, hop-off bus. It gave us plenty of time to see the graves of JFK, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and the Changing of the Guard at the tomb. We didn\u2019t stop to see Lee\u2019s mansion, but you could. I would have liked to wander a little more, but we saw the main sites.<\/p>\n<p>Our tour of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing was really lame. It lasted about half an hour and we didn\u2019t see much.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 760px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Arlington1\" alt=\"Arlington Cemetary Amphitheater\" src=\"https:\/\/globaladventurestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/Arlington1.jpg\" width=\"750\" height=\"501\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Arlington Cemetery Amphitheater<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 760px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Arlington2\" alt=\"Arlington Cemetery\" src=\"https:\/\/globaladventurestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/Arlington2.jpg\" width=\"750\" height=\"501\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Arlington Cemetery<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 760px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Arlington3\" alt=\"Arlington Cemetary Tomb of the Unknown Soldier\" src=\"https:\/\/globaladventurestravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/Arlington3.jpg\" width=\"750\" height=\"501\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Arlington Cemetery Tomb of the Unknown Soldier<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our tour of the Pentagon today was basically a tour of a mall and suburban office complex.
