0 Getting out of Lefant Station in Washington D.C. on Inauguration dayok i cut peices out b/c it took us an hour…it was scary, i paused the video and restarted it many times. im sorry for it being shaky it was a little hectic to say the least. so basically we got out of the train and got up ont he top level it took 40 minutes to get to the gates. they only let a few people few at a time. so i started this when we got past the gate. when we got to where the escalaters were they had stoped and its hard to see but a firefighter was talking to a cop and after another 30 minutes they finally restarted the escalators and we got up. When we got out it was awsome we got to watch history. sorry for the grammar errors.
