President Donald Trump and
First Lady Melania Trump ended a whistle-stop tour of inaugural balls on Friday
at a gala for the armed forces.
After appearing at the Liberty and Freedom Balls at the Washington
Convention Center, the first couple arrived at the National Building Museum
shortly before 11pm to attend the tribute event where they danced with
servicemen and women.
Earlier, the newly sworn in president told thousands of
well-heeled guests: 'Now the fun begins,' and reflected on the day's various
events as 'beautiful'.
In her first public remarks since as First Lady, Melania, dazzling
in a one-of-a-kind Hervé Pierre gown, said she was 'honored' by the role.
Egged on by her husband, who spoke with troops at Bagram Air Base
in Afghanistan via video conference moments earlier, she vowed: 'We will fight.
We will win. And we will make America great again.'
The president's motorcade arrived back at the White House at
11.40pm, marking the end of a spectacular day of inaugural events.
