Explaining the History of the Restoration of the old Capitol and the building of the new one. 
I remember these being on the front steps.
House of Representatives
They found all of the original furniture for this room, Supreme Court.
We found this interesting about Disney World.
The new Capitol.
The children got to sit in the Representatives chairs and pretend like they were that Representative while they had a mock session, voting and all! It was so much fun. They went through all of steps, what a learning experience.
Debating.
Rebekah voting.
They even got to see their votes on the screen.

Rebekah and I on the 2nd floor. Silly Carmen, I actually kept him in my daycare.
Going up 22 floors.
These are a few of the views from 22 floors up.

Very beautiful Skywatch contribution!
Cheers, Klaus
P.S.: Please be so kind to add a link back to the main Skywatch Site, to invite others to see skies from all over the world. It's part of the rules for that very reason! Thanks!
Your Skywatch Team.
Hi Darla,
What great photos of a great trip!! Stop by my blog for your award. I've "Fallen" for Your Blog.
Nice photos! My hubby will be up that way to work at the North FL Fair next week. Hopefully he'll have time to visit the capitol as well. Thanks for sharing!
Darla, I loved the Capitol building photos! Very interesting! And that blue sky behind the capitol spire is a gorgeous Skywatch shot. Very nice posting! Take care--

That is a cool class trip - I like that they got to sit in the seats and see their votes on the screen!
Wonderful skies and fun field trip!
what a beautiful capitol. I love the
red and white stripe awnings!
What an interesting visit and so educational for the children. Everyone should get to know how our government works.
nice series of photos! lovely shots you got! happy skywatching!
Enjoyed the tour very much! What a great educational opportunity for the kids. Looks like you guys had a great time!
What an educational trip--especially for the children!!!! Thanks for sharing!
Those are great pictures.
Can I ask how you got those images to show up on your blog list rather than just the blogger (or whatever) symbol?
Thanks!
Lovely photos!

Darla: Very nicely done for SWF. I visited over 200 sites and missed yours, oh my. Silly me. Thanks for linking in. FG
Very informative, first I thought may-be too much for SkyWatch...but why not?! Then I can also use more pictures from the same trip...
Thanks for the fieldtrip through your capital building Darla. What a lovely blue sky!
Interesting field trip - enjoyed the photos!
Silly Carmen looks like he could be family.
There are 2 steeples, so does not that mean you were making reference to the one you attend?
Thanks for letting us go on the field trip with you! Great photos as usual.
Great post! I really enjoyed the pics. What a handsome building, inside and out.
:D This post brings back memories. When I was in college we used to do capitals every morning. We'd jog from the dorm, down to the new capital building, and up the 22 floors of stairs to the viewing deck. Then back. No wonder I was skinny back then!
