Today my friends and I walked from 20th and F street all the way up to T street and Connecticut avenue to the courtyard mariott hotel to visit another one of our friends. The walk took me in a direction of DC that i’ve never been before, which was pretty awesome. We walked to 19th street and then just started up in the direction of T street. we walked through dupont circle, which i’ve probably heard mentiond over a hundred time before but have never been to myself. Just being in a place that i’ve heard so many times was pretty cool,plus it was nice to be in a place that isn’t foggy bottom for once. The hotel there is pretty sweet. Te room that our friend was staying in was nicely sized and had a good view. We all decided to go to the pool out there which was really nice. The temperature was perfect and it was really quiet, until about 10 or 15 middle schoolers all ran up at the same time and jumped in, soaking all of our closed which were on the side of the pool. At that point it seemed pretty absurd for us to stay in the pool because we could barely move and it was way too loud to talk to each other. So we decided to walk back and go bar b q at my fraternity house. We went to trader joe’s on 25th and L street, another grocery store that i’ve never been to before. I love that i am finally getting out and seeing other sides of DC now that my friends are here.
