A visual journey through a place I went to almost a whole month ago.  D.C. was full of funky neighborhoods, fantastic eateries, and much more than just touristy sites. I did a lot of the typical stuff, but my roommate is a native of the area, so she took me to her favorite parks, gardens and spaces.

I was so lucky to go with her- Meghan likes things that spark interest and also have an intellectual edge to them. Although, I’m not going to lie- we went to the Portrait Gallery and spent the entire time comparing dead people for their appearance- we were browsing for husbands and lovers among the centuries-deceased. Not our classiest moment, imagining their crooked teeth and smallpox scars and admiring ruffs and lace and double chins.
