Washington DC - Friday

Friday, we went to Georgetown!

Walking around these historic neighborhoods, the old churches, and along the waterfront of the Potomac River was so cool. There is such a sense of history in this section of DC.  So many houses and row homes had plaques on their sides - indicating they had a story to tell, that they'd be there for a long, long time.
I saw things I knew once had a purpose, but were no longer used.
This was, by far, one of the most fascinating neighborhoods I've had the pleasure of walking around.
