It’s a beautiful day here in Northern Virginia, and the perfect day to head into the city. And by city, I mean Washington DC, of course. Having grown less than ten miles from DC, I have spent a lot of time there. Since becoming a grown up, I’ve grown to love the city in a whole new way. I got married at beautiful Dahlgren Chapel on the campus of Georgetown University and my children were baptized in the heart of Georgetown. Since moving a bit further out from DC (35 miles) we don’t get into the city as often as we used to. Part of that is living a bit further out, but the biggest reason is that our kids are getting older and are busy people too. Regardless, we are heading into the city today – and I can’t wait!
We don’t have an agenda – which I like. We have talked about seeing the Cherry Blossoms and about hitting a museum or two. Luckily my husband has crazy parking skills and luck, so I don’t need to worry about that.
If you ever have a chance to visit our great city, here is some good information to help you start planning your trip. And of course, we’d welcome you with open arms. We are pretty friendly folk here in the nation’s capital.
