walking tour.

It was only a two day weekend, but Scott and I covered a lot of ground! We went to Sticky Rice on H Street for dinner on Friday and stopped at Rita's for custard. Phenomenal!

On Saturday, we ate up the whole day taking care of some loose ends and catching up with some of Scott's friends from the UNFPA.

Come Sunday, we were ready to take advantage of the gorgeous day and man did we. We headed to Pearl Dive for brunch and from there proceeded to walk 11 miles around the city. I mapped it out as proof.


We walked over to Georgetown campus and down M street. We stopped to see a movie in Foggy Bottom (more on that soon). Then, we walked past the State Department. A pedi-cab offered us a free ride down the hill to the Lincoln!


The reflecting pool is also full again and the clouds were reflecting!

We then mozied on to the Tidal Basin, past the MLK Monument and on to Roosevelt. I loved the detail on his hands. 
Finally, we wrapped around to the Jefferson Memorial where the light was shining beautifully through.
I stopped documenting at this point. But, we made our way over for a meal at Graffiato (unfortunately disappointing) and of course, finished the day strong with a walk home from Chinatown. Could not have asked for a better day to catch up and walk the city!
