(CNN) — On his first full day back in Washington, President-elect Barack Obama visited Arlington National Cemetery on Sunday, where he took part in a ceremony alongside Vice President-elect Joe Biden.
The two — along with their families and a huge crowd — will attend a celebratory concert Sunday afternoon at the Lincoln Memorial.
Obama’s arrival in Washington on Saturday evening marked the end of his three-day train tour from Illinois.
It’s all part of the drum-up to Tuesday, when Obama will be inaugurated as the 44th president of the United States.
