Vacation Days are Winding Down

My "vacation days" are winding down so I thought I would take advantage of my free time and explore the area.

Today I took the Metro into Rosslyn and walked over the Key Bridge to Georgetown. The view from the bridge was lovely:

I never really appreciated the beauty of trees and fall leaves until I moved here!

After a cup of coffee and German chocolate cupcake from Dean and Deluca, I walked, Metro'd and walked (again) to the Washington National Cathedral.

View from the Cathedral's Observation Gallery:

And the view from my long walk to the Metro.

I wish it would stay fall forever.
