Things To Do
Georgetown Waterfront Park
The site of our first date! A great place to relax along the Potomac River with a bite to eat after strolling through Georgetown.
Hillwood Estate, Museum, & Gardens
Kirk planned to ask Erin to be his girlfriend in the Hillwood Estate Gardens, but she beat him to the punch and told him she wanted to be his girlfriend the morning before their date. Hillwood is a stunning historic mansion with beautiful grounds and a one-of-a-kind view of the Washington Monument. Plan to spend about two hours here if you visit.
Smithsonian National Zoological Park
For the animal lovers.
United States Botanic Garden
For the horticulturists.
National Museum of African American History and Culture
Erin's pick.
National Portrait Gallery
Kirk's pick.
Old Post Office Pavilion
The best view of the National Mall is from the top of the Old Post Office tower.
Union Market
Many delicious food options all in one place along with several local DC merchants, with lots of other restaurants in the neighborhood. There's something for everyone here.
The Wharf
Waterfront restaurants of all kinds are available at the Wharf.
