Lincoln's Tomb


This statue of Lincoln was the first thing we saw when we entered the tomb and it was done by the same artist as Lincoln's Monument in Washington DC.



Lincoln's nose has been kept polished by thousands of people who have rubbed it when they come to see his tomb. When I stepped back to look at his face, I was surprised to see how sad he looked. It was one of those moments that took my breath away.
