capitol tour

sometimes it's fun to be a tourist in the city you live in.  it is also a universal truth that you rarely think about doing quintessential things in your city until faced with the reality of leaving said city (or in the event that you have visitors in town to play tourist with you, like this time).


what i'm getting at is at that ww and i have lived in the district for 4 years, and while we may have been to a ridiculous number of bars & restaurants, we had yet to do a real tour of our nation's capitol building.


shameful? perhaps.


luckily, ww's awesome cousin caroline (also has an awesome name) is a hot-shot over on capitol hill & was nice enough to hook us up with a vip tour yesterday.


it was great.


we even got to sit on the floor of the house of representatives.


we also squeezed in a walk around the adorable homes on capitol hill, 
and some burgers at our favorite, good stuff eatery.


aaaand we also did this...sorry, we couldn't help ourselves.


thanks for a great dc day, caroline! we'll miss you.
