The video, which I did, begins with some images and video from Wilmington, Delaware on January 18 and then we go to Washington DC from January 19-20. The raw video on Inauguration Day is from the Silver Section of the ticketed area. You can hear the crowd and the speech as it was from that vantage point. The video ends as people are exiting from the event. Over two million people participated in the event.

3. Thanks for checking it out

There is really no way of getting the full feeling of actually being there. Hopefully this gave some insight...

5. I didn't want to attend because I thought it would be hassle on top of

inconvenience, but now I can't stop thinking about it. The images are surreal, and now I wish I had gone, to have it just be settled in my mind already.

It doesn't seem real.

And now, now people are truly waiting for this man's leadership. They believe in him and his honesty.
