Loyola Academy trip to Washington inspires vivid memories
A Loyola Academy senior from Chicago recounts a five day school trip with 77 classmates to Washington and historic Virginia. Highlights include meeting Rep Rabaut on the House floor, a guided tour of the USS Essex aircraft carrier Valley Forge, an FBI tour, and a Potomac to Norfolk steamer cruise. The voyage offered deluxe accommodations for the author and his roommate, but poor weather marred the monument visit and long colonial Virginia travel days tired the group.
