Exploring DC

So Saturday I went out with friends to the Eastern Market, actually it was a school organized trip therefore they paid for the metro which was fabulous, but we broke off from the group when we got there. It is on this long street with art, pictures, a flea market sections, unique jewelery and even fresh organic fruit. It reminded me of San Francisco- all artsy and down to earth.
Then today, we all went to China town- and right when we got out of the metro I noticed it was snowing! Just little flakes here and there that disappeared. We were around H street and 7th. Sarah and I went to the Smithsonian- the Art and Portrait one. There was a whole room on Katherine Hepburn, I was really excited. Then we made it on to meet some other people coming from class at the Library of Congress. They had a tour as their class for the morning, then the seminar later in the day. So we had Chinese food, and I had good California rolls and vegetarian egg rolls. I scouted out the gym on the main campus today and took a trial class...so I am feeling good!
My official classes start tomorrow with Christian Maisch, this funny man from Peru. We shall see...until next time.
