I have a very old memory of Janie and MM talking about how fun it would be to do a sister weekend in DC when MM was 16, Janie 18, and me 21. Or maybe it was NYC. But finally, it happened :D
Ok, to start from the beginning:
|
Rose petals in my cocktail! I don't normally fall for gimmicky things like this but... |
|
united at last! |
|
don't remember what this was |
|
cucumber, creme fresh, anchovy, garlic, some other stuff I don't remember |
|
pasta... with corn? definitely cheese. All of it was good. |
|
This is where we ate dinner that first night, a place called Rose's Luxury. |
|
My breakfast on Saturday morning! YUM |
|
MM's breakfast, which she sent back because the shrimp have heads and also it was spicy :/ |
|
My sisters are v good at finding photo opps. |
|
Our brother WGL! |
|
I loooove trees like this, growing out of walls. |
|
amazing! |
|
We spent all day birding around, thanks to Janie's determination. It's way fun. |
|
|
Found our friend Jon! |
|
|
Then we had a picnic on the Mall. Janie and MM called it a charcuterie board. |
|
The next morning, I got lost on what was supposed to be an 11-mile run but ended up just 5 because of all the time it took to get un-lost. I ended up on an overgrown, muddy trail that dumped me onto the highway... so then I walked along the highway until I could get on a sidewalk again to run. :( |
|
Hard to run down stairs like these... |
|
Hard to run under trees like these... |
|
Hard to run through bushes like these... |
|
idk |
|
Then we went to the National Portrait Museum! Check out this shadow art! |
|
I got these crescent-moon earrings as a souvenir at a street fair. I love them! (my sisters and the earrings hehe) |
