President-elect Donald Trump, future First Lady Melania Trump and the Trump family arrived this morning at Joint Base Andrews ahead of the inauguration of the 45th President of the United States.

The military plane carrying the Trumps arrived at the base around noon ET. Inaugural events are currently underway in D.C., with Trump expected to speak at this afternoon's "Make America Great Again Welcome Celebration" held at the Lincoln Memorial.

Trump's family exited the plane first, followed by the President-elect and his wife. Once on the ground, Trump delivered a salute to the waiting guards.

Earlier in the day, Trump said via Twitter he was looking forward to the process.

"Getting ready to leave for Washington, D.C. The journey begins and I will be working and fighting very hard to make it a great journey for the American people. I have no doubt that we will, together, make America great again" he wrote.

Trump will be attending a leadership luncheon today before traveling with Vice President-elect Mike Pence to Arlington National Cemetery for a wreath laying ceremony. After the Welcome Celebration appearance, Trump will attend a VIP reception at Union Station before spending the night at the guest house across the street from the White House, ABC News reported.

The official swearing-in ceremonies will begin at 11:30 a.m. ET (10:30 a.m. CT) tomorrow.
