Washington DC in Sunshine

The weekend in Washington DC was a chance to relax and prepare for a busy week ahead of many interviews in DC and Boston. Sunshine drenched the city as many tourists took to the Smithsonian museums, memorials and historic sites.

On Saturday I soaked up Georgetown and shared a feast with the EF group at a Lebanese restaurant, while on Sunday I saw both the Newseum and National Art Gallery which were two places I missed out on last year. A highlight at the Newseum (history and reflections of the media and freedom of speech) was me getting in front of the news camera and teleprompter so see if I cut it as a journalist. I also particularly liked the sculpture gallery at National Art Gallery - the Degas and Rodins....
