Happy Birthday! What a great tour of Washington D.C. I am from northern Virginia (Fairfax) which is pretty close to there. It was fun growing up seeing D.C. often. I love the hotel and the food looks great too! That chocolate Easter egg was huge!!! Lol! Happy Birthday to You!🎂

Thanks! I had a blast. Oh, nice! Fairfax sounds like a nice place to live, so close to the city. Most of the cab/uber drivers were from VA.

The hotel and food were great! thx. Glad you liked my DC pics!! Yeah, imagine eating that chocolate egg?! lol

Thanks for the birthday wishes :)) xo

What a beautiful trip, the weather looked amazing, the food to die for, and I love the photo of you on the chaise lounge! Your outfit was so nice, I loved you in the white blouse as well! Looking GREAT Woman!!!! xoxox

Aww thanks, Lyndsay. We did have decent weather. Rained a bit but not too much. Last day very warm!

Aww, thanks. Just a little blue comfy dress (nothing elaborate). The chaise lounge made it all look fancier!

Thank you so much for the compliments! xoxo
