A Day in the Life - Lunch Break

Today, Justin and I are hopping on a plane (well, two planes), to start our month long Euro-tour in Glasgow, Scotland, where I once lived and worked as an au pair. 

We'll be in Scotland for 3 nights before we take a train down to London so I can work for a week in our London office to help prepare for our association's big 50th Anniversary Celebration in Paris the following week. 

I don't know how regularly I'll be posting over the next month, but I'm going to try to check in about twice a week or so. 

Since I'll probably be sharing a lot of what I see over there, I thought I would start with showing a little glimpse of my life here in the US of A by shooting some pics while on a fro-yo quest at work. 

The street outside my office; the Georgetown Canal

I'm pretty lucky to work in a neighborhood of DC called Georgetown. Known most obviously for the University, Georgetown is a picturesque, preppy mecca, full of expensive shops and trendy restaurants - a blessing for convenience, and a most definite curse for my wallet.

Fro-yo success; shops on M Street

A lot of people in DC tend to sneer at GT with its preppy, collegiate population, its pretentious shops, and its lack of a metro stop, but I'm still a sucker for the brick sidewalks, beautiful architecture, and let's face it - the numerous lunch options.

If you are ever visiting DC, I highly recommend a visit to Georgetown for some stellar shopping, a little old world charm, and spectacular water views.

Have a wonderful week everyone - I'll see you on the other side of the pond!
