This weekend was jam packed with things...but this time a few friends from good ol' Illinois were in on the experience! First we walked the Mall to do the touristy thing. Then we explored Georgetown and check out Georgetown University...nice place! Oh...and we checked out the huge set of stairs that was used in the Exorcist. Then we went to Arlington Cemetery where we visited the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and Kennedy's grave. We also checked out an exhibit that displayed all the original paintings of those soldiers killed in the Iraq War...wow! Later, we kayaked down the Potomac River and checked out the city from the water. Then, to finish up their trip we attended a Washington Capitals hockey game. Unfortunately the CAPS lost, but we had a blast in our nose bleed seats anyway...GO CAPS!! I had an awesome weekend with Mark, Mckenzi and Luke and I'm glad they got to explore DC with me...in fact they were able to apply a number of the DC Tips too!
DC Tip# 9: Just so everyone is aware...the wide metal area that divides the escalators at the Metro is not a slide and should not be attempted to be used as a slide. Should one decide to use the dividing area as a HUGE amusement device, please be aware that it is VERY dirty and that you will walk away with a great deal of dirt covering your pants...I promise!
