If we ever feel like we've seen enough of DC we might branch out to New York, Boston, or Philly. Until then, here's another week in our Nation's capital.
Jazz concert in the National Sculpture Garden.
The National Zoo. Two Saturdays ago we walked to the Farmers Market, realized we were halfway to the Zoo, bought a few ears of corn and kept on walking. Again, forgot to take any quality pictures.
Bens Chili Bowl. Looks like cat food, tastes like Heaven. Free meals for the Obamas and Bill Cosby only.
The Washington, DC temple. If we ever re-did our wedding, we'd do it here.
Our Saturday Mall Marathon. Part way through we met up with Matt Masters (in yellow and one of AJ's closest friends) and his friend Nate. Both are here for internships through the Air Force Academy. This summer has been fun because we get to see Matt so often - every Sunday at church, sometimes for FHE and occasionally on our Saturday outings. That's more than we've ever seen him in Utah!

| This family may have been Amish. We'd never seen anyone react to an escalator in that way. We're not rude, just curious. |

Today we're going on a competitive scavenger hunt with the interns at AJ's work. We're supposed to run all over DC while it's 104 degrees outside. Despite the heat, we're actually pretty pumped. Im excited to meet the interns, have some competition, and see more of DC. And did I mention the free BBQ? Yeah, we'll be there.
I don't think I've heard you say anything about the street vendor hot dogs. I'm afraid you may be missing out on an incredible opportunity.
ReplyDeleteOther than that, well done. You're making me jealous.
You know the pictures of the waterfalls and the monuments? Thats where we were walking the last time I talked to AJ while he was on his mission and before I left on mine. Coolio. Sounds like you're having fun.
