DC by foot

Our latest 4-day adventure included a drive to the nations capital last weekend. It was a phenomenal weekend that we mostly filled with great sights and good food. In fact if you visit go to TangySweet, a delic frozen yogurt shop.

Our first full day of fun was started off by a two hour tour led by a group called DC by Foot. As their website says, "the only free tip based tour of Washington DC." Our guide was filled with facts and snacks. Occasionally he'd quiz you for a chance to win a snack. It was good fun with loads of historic, and even some modern, facts of DC. Two stories I found interesting was the history behind the creation of George Washington's Monument and the Vietnam War Memorial. Speaking of George Washington... were we ever lucky to have him as a founding father.

So the next chance you get, take a trip to DC, where the roots of our nation run deep. Enjoy the PICS.
