We got off the Metro near the Ford Theatre so we could see inside the presidential box where Linclon was assinated. They had closed it off when we were here yesterday. There were very few people there today, so the Park Ranger could tell us more in depth about it. There were 9 other people who were in on the plot, and it had been premeditated for years. We went inside the booth where he was shot and learned all about how Booth escaped jumping from the box to the stage and out a back door where his horse was being held for him.
