This is the final installment of my Inauguration Day photo posts. We watched the festivities from the District Court for DC. If you missed the first two installments:
Inauguration Part 1: The Concert
Inauguration Part 2: Monday’s Setup
On Tuesday, the final event which millions of people had been waiting for finally occured. The actual inauguration ceremony started around 11 am eastern standard time, so we began our trip to the capitol building right around 9 am. We arrived at the capitol right before the ceremony began to behold this scene:

We watched the festivities from the District Court for DC, we were lucky to be inside to escape both the crowds and the weather. Unfortunately we had to walk there from Cleveland Park. Here is a map:
But once we got to the Courthouse we were warm and comfortable to watch the event. After the Jump there are around 70 photos. Some are of the speeches and some are of the crowds watching the parade.
