Washington, DC - Way Behind Schedule

July, 2010. Days after my move to Ottawa, The Boy and I head to that other national capitol to revel in the geekiness of the Smithsonian. We checked out Julia Child's kitchen, had a picnic nearish the White House (about as close to the White House as you can have a picnic), checked out the First Lady's farmers' market and drank Bud Light with the locals.

B has most of the good photos, but here's a smattering of what I captured:

Then on to four days in the Shenandoah Valley, complete with llama treks and an unsuccessful attempt at geocaching.




Travel tip: try airbnb for accommodations. In DC we stayed in a cute house owned by a fabulous woman named Sara who helped us make the most of our trip.

We're going away again for a couple of weeks in June. Stay tuned.
