Wear multiple layers, starting with silk long underwear. I had VIP tickets to Clinton's first inauguration, thanks to my adult kid who worked on the Inaugural Committee. Saw lots of celebrities; watched the parade from the bleachers set up right next to the enclosed area where the Pres./VP & families were sitting; sat next to Rob Morrow (the actor who played the doc on Northern Exposure) at one party; rubbed elbows with Faye Dunaway at the Diana Ross/Michael Jackson concert. Then we had just gone to a side street after the fireworks show & hailed a late night taxi when Congressman and Mrs. Tanner (Tennessee) dashed up and asked us if we would please share, which we of course did. They were super friendly and invited us to a party the next day in his congressional office.

Have a FANTASTIC TIME!!! You'll remember it all of your life! Everyone should go to at least one inauguration!
