Inspired by the presidential inauguration, Peter the Anteater decided to spend his winter break in Washington, D.C. On his whirlwind tour, he visited the Capitol Building, the Washington and Lincoln memorials, the new World War II Memorial, the Smithsonian Institution and more. Unfortunately, Peter wasn't able to stay long enough to see the inauguration live – but he watched it on TV.
