My daughter and I enjoyed a trip to Georgetown today. We went to go to a specific store, and ended up walking up and down M street, then down to the canal. The canal was dry, but still fun to explore the area. It was very crowded, even in January and during COVID, I can’t imagine how crowded it gets during better times. Parking was a bit of a challenge, but eventually found a place for $5 a day, cheap for DC!…

I only had about an hour for this part of my stroll, as I had to meet my wife back at our hotel, near the White House, so had quite a few blocks for my return trip. I would allow at least 4 hours to explore Georgetown, with all that it has to offer, and include lunch in one of the myriad restaurants, as well.…
