inauguration

I've never been to an inauguration.

A boy from my son's school is in DC now to attend the inauguration tomorrow. I am sure he will have lots to tell when he gets home. The mother of one of my son's friends is also in DC to attend tomorrow's inauguration. I am sure there are thousands of people who are excited to see the event. If you did not receive one of the free tickets, and did not purchase one of those free tickets from someone who did receive one, then you can catch all the happenings on television tomorrow. Here is a schedule of some of tomorrow's events:
