The Big Apple Meets the Cherry Blossoms

My friend Steph came down to DC for a weekend visit during the Cherry Blossom Festival. Me, being a planner, had the weekend perfectly scheduled with rain activities in my back pocket. Luckily, the rain stayed away, but the schedule didn't work out so perfectly.

Lessons Learned:
- If you leave an adorable dog tied up in the cold, we may consider stealing him. And should have.
- Going to H Street after 7:30 pm in hopes of dinner is a mistakeee. No one can promise you a table before their kitchen closes.
- Smartphones save lives. A little google, a little yelp, and a little urbanspoon sent us to Busboys and Poets.
- Vanilla Porter is a delicious beer.
- Having nachos, heavy beer, and paninis is toooo much before a night of drinking and dancing.
- U Street Music Hall is not for the bloated and weary. But definitely a good time.

Despite the setbacks, the weekend was a success. Thanks for visiting and giving us an excuse to do all the DC stuff we're usually too lazy to do.
