rainbows, georgetown and badgers - oh my...

I know it's Tuesday so it's kind of late to be doing a "weekend re-cap" post, but I'm sure that you weren't sitting on the edge of your chair freaking out over my absence. I don't even know who reads this blog anyway (hi...mom? friends? maybe?)...

But moving on - weekend #2 in DC was as great as #1. Highlights included the gay pride festivities (those are some pretty little banners up above), multiple trips to Georgetown, a monument or two, and so. much. walking. This can't be said enough: ALWAYS WEAR GOOD SHOES. ALWAYS. My poor feet. I'll never learn.

 

I'll be living here in 5 years, thank you. 

 One of the many freebies that we got at DC pride.

 View of the Pride Festival from the observation deck of the Newseum (news + museum, obviously). The Newseum was incredible, worth the admission price, and definitely contending for my favorite tourist stop so far. Also, please note the Canadian Embassy hanging out over there on the left side.

My roommate Debbie and I are from the same school (but we are random roommates - fun, right?) so we went to this bar that specifically caters to alumni from our college. It was, in a word, amazing. It will definitely not be the last time I go there this summer.
