We visited Washington a few years ago. I didn't get to do any shopping though because my son wanted to spend all our time at the various Smithsonian museums. I can't say I blame him. The exhibits are quite stunning.
Great photos and the Lemon Tart looks yummy! If I win Lotto Mary, I'll fly to Washington and meet you there! What fun you and I could have seeing such sites as Capitol Hill, the Smithsonian Institute (always wanted to take my children there), Mt Vernon.... and then there's the shopping and checking out Vintage! Wouldn't that be fun!! xx
A BREATH OF FRESH AIR is a fresh version of my former three year blog ACROSS THE POND which can still be accessed by clicking on the title above. I'm a transplanted Brit enjoying life in North Carolina.
Sixty two years of journeying back and forth across the wide Atlantic Ocean have kept me busy…….and made my life very interesting! Although I've now visited all seven continents, I continue to travel and look forward to sharing new places around the world. I love taking photos! All images are my own unless noted otherwise. Please do not use my photos without a request. I enjoy sharing and will usually say OK!
Sounds like you are having a great time!
