Washington, D.C.

For starters, I’ll admit; Washington, D.C., is one of the prettiest places I have visited so far. It offers beautiful scenery, trees, unique museums, and a lot of history. Traveling to Washington, D.C., in February brought a lot of questions about the weather and if we’d be able to handle the east coast winter. Well, preparation was essential! Yes, living in California also means one most likely does not own an ideal winter coat. We ensured checking this item off our list! Other essentials included beanies, gloves, scarves, and LAYERS. I can only imagine how cold it gets in December!

There is a lot to see. However, we couldn’t see it all. We visited the National African American History Museum, which was quite a fun and educational experience.

Our visit to the White House was nothing less than superb!

Another fantastic, self-guided tour perfect for families. This was a big deal!❤️

Then, of course, are my “D.C Must-Haves”…

are three things I must have on a trip: A good coffee spot, fresh oysters, and delicious cocktails.🍸

If you are a coffee lover, Zeke Coffee is for you! It is located across the street and a five-minute walk from the White House. #CoffeeLover #ZekeCoffee #WhiteHouse

Oysters are a must-have for me! 🦪. If you happen to be in Washington, D.C. and like oysters, you must stop by The Walrus Oyster & Ale House. Check out their site here https://www.nationalharbor.com/directory/the-walrus-oyster-ale-house/. This place does not disappoint!
