Virginia & Washington, D.C.

by Rhobie Toussaint, posted in Experience, Photo Essays

There’s something beautiful about having the opportunity to get away and see new places. 

This is exactly what I got out of the experience of being in Virginia, Washington D.C., and Maryland over the weekend. I don’t travel much, but when I do I always have a good time. Going out of town for a few days, away from any pressures and responsibility, is freeing and relaxes me in a way that can’t be accomplished in my house. It’s also always interesting to see how other places differentiate from where I live, starting at the structure of buildings and going into the population. Whether the place I’m visiting is a different city, or a different state, the visit itself never ceases to be a fun learning experience, and this time in the DMV area (Maryland, Virginia, part of West Virginia, District of Colombia) exactly the same. 

My trip to the DMV area is one that I will never forget, and the experience is one I will forever treasure. 

 

Our day started in Alexandria, Virginia. 

The first destination was Van Dorn Diner, where we had breakfast. 

We then made our way to Washington D.C., where majority of the sightseeing was done. 
The Art Museum of the Americas was our first stop in Washington, D.C.

We spent the majority of the remaining time in D.C walking around, marveling at the different sights and taking pictures.
