Things To Do
Tidal Basin
You will be able to see the Cherry Blossoms blooming during the weekend! Enjoy them, they are such a blessing of peace for the world to view. A gift from Japan!:)
National Mall
The Smithsonian Museums are open to the public (must wear masks) and the mall with all the monuements are all open to view! It can take an entire day to see all of these on the mall, and we'd recommend spending SOME time in a few museums -- trust me, you can get lost in these for hours if you want! Enjoy it. Our favorite monument is WW2 for sunset.
Bluebird Sky Yoga
If you need a little yoga for the weekend, help out Katie's local (virtual only right now) yoga studio! They have a great mysore program, and many others. http://www.bluebirdskyyoga.com/
Meridian Hill Park - Drum Circle
On Sunday, if you find the chance to get away or want to enjoy some drum beats, this park has had a drum circle every year (for like 60+ years) and they drum until sunset! Enjoy.
Keren Cafe & Restaurant
Our favorite Eritrean Food place. Period. Get the Karen Special and you'll feast (2-3 people can share 1 order).
Huacatay Restaurant
Our favorite Peruvian restaurant. Period. An entire chicken meal that serves many for a great price (like $25-$35 pending sides)
MOM's Organic Market
Great mindful grocery store we like to get local products @, super thoughtful and they also have bomb healthy foods you can get on the go too!
Founding Farmers DC
BOMB local farm to table restaurant-- a bit pricey-- but worth it.
Menomale
Dope pizza.... legit ya'll.
Right Proper Brewing Company
We've got a lot of local breweries - this one is legit.
Kogiya Korean BBQ
SO GOOOOOD. Korean BBQ. Yummmm.
The Dew Drop Inn
Local bar, quirky, one of our favorites and has great outdoor seating too. Parking available.
Madam's Organ
If music is open, this place is the BEST for music, and next door there is Bossa which is equally rad. Don't like one of them? Easy to go next door to the other. Cover charges.
National Museum of African American History and Culture
National Museum of the American Indian
Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History
