Mondaze : Back to Reality

It's 7:50 and I'm sitting at work wishing I was on my way to some vacation. But it's Monday and I'm really back at work after a whole week off. When is my next vacation or getaway? Planning something for September ;) I love working and I missed my boys but a week off is the best thing that could possibly happen. DC was amazing. Just even the drive down to DC was so much fun (took us about 4 hours). The amount of jokes and laughter that were made on this trip was the best. I couldn't have gone with better friends than these! (Left to Right: Gracia, Me, Danny, David, & Marilyn)

So we spent our Saturday waking up super early and grabbing breakfast at our hotel ( We stayed at my favorite little town in Virginia called Alexandria) than spending the whole day in DC visiting museums. Let me tell you, it was exhausting, super exhausting. But it was worth it. Even though I have visited these museums many times before, I still enjoy going again and. Walking around our countries capital. As for Saturday night, we are in Old town/Alexandria. If anyone is to visit make sure you to here. It's the cutest and nicest town I have ever been too. My dad took me like 6 years ago for the first time and I've been coming here every year since. Make sure you go to King St (it's the Main Street there) we had dinner at an Italian restaurant and has a delicious pesto calzone with a cosmopolitan. Can we talk about the Cosmo? Holy moly was it strong. Two sips of that and I was already feeling funny. We than walked the water front and the boat docks.

Sunday was great also because we went to see al the monuments and the main tourist spots. And the weather was perfect (maybe just a little TOO hot). And here's another collage of photos from Sunday! Top left is the national cathedral. Middle is at the World War II memorial. Bottoms is at the White House (we do these picture of from our eyes and up lol don't ask). To the right is the Washington memorial.

It was an amazing weekend and really the perfect ending of my summer. School starts next and work goes back to my normal schedule. My summer flew by so quickly but I have to say it's my favorite summer yet. Hopefully next summer I'll be in Europe exploring 🌎🌏🌍  Have a great week!
