Yay, 2 weeks in a row! I am going to Minden, Nevada Boise, Idaho and Washington, DC in the next 2 months. My question this week is: What should I do while I'm there? And if you haven't been to any of those places before, what is another place you would suggest I visit?
I'm also taking part in Friday Follow. Please follow my blog and leave a link so I can follow yours. Thanks to One 2 Try, Hearts Make Families, and Midday Escapades.
I absolutely love Washington, DC! I lived there for a brief period of time and it was wonderful. If you like dancing, clubs, and eclectic restaurants, go to Adams Morgan. It's a cool area to see even if you don't go to a club! One of my favorite mexican restaurants, a little hole in the wall, used to be there. Dupont Circle, the notably gay area of DC, is also an awesome place to go. There are some great shops and food, too. Try something different- go to an ethiopian restaurant while you are there. It's definitely worth a visit. Many asian restaurants are delicious, too, and much more authentic than smaller cities. All of the museums are great, too. Natural History, Art, and the Holocaust Museums are must-sees if you are around that area! :) Have a great time and try out the metro to get around. It's super easy and cheap. I'm jealous. Haven't been in a while and am dying to go back.
ReplyDeleteI've been to Washington D.C. and loved it! I'd recommend the National
ReplyDeleteZoo, Bureau of Engraving and Printing, National Archives Building, Lincoln Memorial, Union Station, Great Falls Park,
I've been to Idaho and Nevado, but not to those particular cities! I hope that you have alot of fun! Have a great Friday!
ReplyDeleteTake in as many of the museums as you can while in DC. I've never heard of Minden, Nv but my Hubby is from Boise. It's been waaaayyyy too many years since we've been there. Like around 15. Wish you luck!
ReplyDeleteWashington DC wohooo!!! I think you should get an Old Town Trolley Tour of the city.. this way you're sure you can cover everything:) I know i regret not doing that in London and i am 100% sure i missed a few important points i wanted to see:P
ReplyDeleteHave fun! Also i am now following you now thanks to Follow Friday!
Aloha!.. also
I don't have any recommendations, but have a great time and take lots of pictures.
ReplyDeleteMinden Nevada? My family lives in Carson City which is like 15 miles away :) WOOT and DC is so cool to see. You really need a lot of time there. Everything is so wonderful to see :) Happy Friday :)
ReplyDeleteHappy FF, nice blog I'm your newest follower =)
ReplyDeleteDo a lot of sight seeing while visiting I have never been to those places but have heard they are awesome have fun
ReplyDeleteI am now a follower of yours
There is so much to see and do in Washington DC. I would make sure to see the monuments, try to sign up for a White House tour (may be too late for that now), and figure out which if any museums you would like to go to. I have not been in a LONG time and want to go to the Smithsonian and Holocaust Museums when I get back. Have a wonderful trip.
ReplyDeleteI have not been to either of those locations. I would suggest taking LOTS of pictures and take a guided tour of something.
ReplyDeleteI love going to DC. I think you should make sure you visit the monuments. You can walk all over to see them. I am not a big fan of the Smithsonians so I don't even bother anymore. They take up so much time. There is so much in DC to see and so little time.
ReplyDeleteI've never been to any of those places but in the States, my suggestions would be Savannah, GA and Boston. Outside the states, Greece was fabulous!
ReplyDeleteWow- take lots of pictures and have fun!
ReplyDeleteHave a great Friday!

Sounds like you'll be having a great time!
ReplyDeleteI don't really know these places so I don't have any suggestions of where to visit.
Enjoy your trips!
Returning your visit. I drove through Washington D.C., and have a cousin there, but that's all. Never been to Idaho, and I've been to Las Vegas, Nevada, but that's it. Sorry I can't be more helpful. Happy FF. Already following.
ReplyDeleteJust have fun and enjoy your trip.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog.
Happy Friday.
That's cool! I live in Jersey and have never been to D.C. LOL

Have a great day!
try to hit up as many museums as you can in DC, we had such a great time!
ReplyDeleteNever been to any of them but do take lots of pics! Im sure itll be great fun.
ReplyDeleteI've never been to any of those places so not sure. Maybe do an online search to get some ideas of cool places that are there.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a good time. ♥
I don't know what you should do. I would suggest just doing things you enjoy.
ReplyDeleteNevada is great, I really only know Vegas stuff. I would say that the show at the Excalibur is fun, eat with your hands, and watch knights, kings, and such all at 1 price. The carnival game area of Circus Circus is fun. And my wife has said that so far the best mac & cheese she had was at the Harley-Davidson Cafe.
ReplyDeleteAlso I would recommend Colorado, beautiful and if you want there are lots of parties going on. There are tons of restaurants that are amazing!
I saw it was your blog and thought I was already following you. Good thing I checked.
ReplyDeleteI'm your new follower now! and also on twitter!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
