Following the senate meeting, we had the opportunity to take a VIP tour of the Iowa State Capital building!
View of the dome from down below...
Further up, looking down below...
Way high up! This was a top view way up in the dome. (Notice the cloud background and backside of the flag- see first picture :)
We climbed lots of crazy steep stairs!
(Grace & Eli stayed back with Auntie Kari)
We soon realized why this was the VIP tour- and no small children were allowed :) You wouldn't have wanted to be on this tour if you were afraid of heights!
Some views from the very top!
Dave and Senator Smith :)
Noelle with her Daddy!
Heading back down...
A view of how all the lightbulbs are changed! :)
