North greeting George Washington and his family. We learned a lot about the Washingtons on our visit and had an amazing time exploring a place so rich with our nations history.
On the estate was an autumn market that we explored -- complete with entertainers such as sword swallowers and musicians.
North loved visiting the farm
...and walking down to the water front!
The estate was beautiful and we enjoyed the opportunity to tour the rooms (no photos allowed inside the house)
Probably our favorite part of the visit were the massive quantities of wide open spaces though. While we love the fact that we are walking distance to restaurants, and stores, and the metro we sometimes forget how nice it can be to get away from people every now and then. It was great to spend a day out 'in the country' with so much room to run around.
