Travel Tuesday: Washington D.C.

This week's Travel Tuesday is all about our nation's capital! So my mom and I traveled to Washington, D.C. on our very first solo trip almost two years ago, and this May we're going back! My brother works for the airline SunCountry so we get crazy great deals through him, and I work for a Marriott so we're usually very taken care of when it comes to a nice hotel. I was so pleasantly surprised with how clean the city was. So the real purpose of the trip was to run a 5K in honor of a close family member who was diagnosed with brain cancer a while back. This year, I'm actually trying to prepare for the race a little better so I've been running regularly and trying to eat super healthy, which is hard to do when you were born with the biggest of sweet tooth's. Here are a few photos from our trip!

 That would be me after the 5k, looking a little sweaty.

My awesome mom!

What I loved about this city so much is the cleanliness, how easy it was to walk everywhere and how easy the metro was! I can't wait to go back so soon and to really check out more of Georgetown as well. 

Have a happy Tuesday everyone! Let me know if you have any suggestions of places to check out while we're in Washington D.C. and Georgetown! :)
