I had a work trip to DC the first week of January. We decided that Nate would join me since it's been about six months since he and snuck away for a "sans kids" trip. WE.HAD.A.BLAST. DC is fantastic! I had never been and truly loved that it's a "walking city" in and around Capitol Hill. We had great food and wine while on the trip. (I would revisit The Grill and The Bar, both in Georgetown, again!) We took a three hour guided tour around the US Capitol, the White House, Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument, WWII Memorial, FDR Memorial, Vietnam War Memorial and the MLK Memorial. We also hit the National Archives to check out the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence. (I picked up a Lincoln coffee cup and a FDR book while there!) The Holocaust Museum was the only museum we visited and one I think everyone should visit.
We ended our trip with a day of travel back home. My parents manned the ship while we were gone. They've agree to visit us again, so the boys couldn't have been too hard on them. :)
A few pics while I was on the clock....and thank you PwC for the fabu room with a view at the Mandarin.
