First Day in Washington DC

Tuesday was our first full day in DC. It was also my baby sister's 21st birthday!!! Big shout-out to Em even if this post is a little late.

Anyway, since that is old news, Christie and I did what now seems to be routine for us and caught one of the hop-on hop-off buses. Our ticket is valid for two days so we will split up the sights.

The U.S. Capitol building

The American Indian Museum

The Smithsonian Visitors Centre. AKA the 'Castle'


The famous and stunning Washington Willard Hotel

We also went through Georgetown but it looked mostly like all the normal shops we see elsewhere so we stayed on the bus.We headed back to the hostel and hung out with people, then headed to The Hard Rock Cafe for dinner and cocktails. We were later joined by Kenny from the hostel (also from Perth).

Christie's cocktail which came with Pop Rocks!
