Alexandria

Never have I ever had such an eventful flight as the one to DC! The adventure was complete with a woman tripping as she got off the plane and breaking her foot (and then having to be wheeled out on a stretcher with an IV) and two somewhat intoxicated men being yelled at by the flight attendant as we were trying to land! I was definitely kept entertained. It is good to be back with Don! People laughed at me for saying this, but two weeks is way too long to be apart.

Our cute condo. We live on the third floor.

We were lucky enough to be able to rent a condo in Alexandria, Virginia for the first part of the summer through some mutual friends. It is nice and spacious (aka Don's sister and my sisters will not be sleeping on the kitchen floor and or bathtub when they come to visit...they get bedrooms and beds!) Best of all, it has a washer and dryer and dish washer. Oh, my favorite appliances.

Friday night I met Don in Georgetown after he got off work and we went to one of my favorite restaurants, Taj of India. (Mmmmmm!) We then walked around Georgetown and visited

some of the shops including H&M, Zara and Dean & Deluca. Ah, delightful. Don was a good sport and put up with all of the window shopping.

(Sorry, kind of blurry...)

Saturday morning we slept in and then went to Old Town Alexandria where an Armenian festival was going on. (Kind of random, we know). We walked around Old Town and stopped at the festival where they had food and entertainment. It was hot enough that you couldn't stand in one place too long, otherwise the humidity would suck you in! Luckily there are alot of air conditioned stores along King Street. We ended our Old Town trip with a visit to to Trader Joe's...why do we not have these in Utah?

We are loving being out here and can't wait for our visitors to come in a few weeks!
