The National Harbor is a new development in Maryland right outside of DC. I really didn't know what to expect because I am going to be honest, I didn't really research it! But I did know that there is a large ferris wheel. Who doesn't love that?
^^Pulling into the National Harbor.
^^"The Awakening" sculpture. Zach was really excited about this. It's located near the pier where you can hang out & kids can play on it.
After walking we sat down for dinner at Rosa Mexicano.
^^Jim came to meet up with us! Amy & I got super lucky with these three cuties...
^^We even got to watch Willy Wonka with dinner (totally unexpected it just happened to be playing.) Not to mention we had a great view!
After dinner we got ready to go onto the Ferris Wheel.
Then we finally got on & the fun really began...
^^Luckily I had good company, I am pretty afraid of heights (eek!)
The view was also beautiful. I love being near the water & taking it all in from above.
After the Ferris Wheel we walked around with ice cream in hand (of course!) I also showed off some of my sweet Shakira dance moves ;).
It was such a great night. I live for weekends filled with good friends, yummy food & fun. I am anxiously awaiting Amy's next trip & anyone else who wants to come visit ;)!
Do you have a favorite place to take visitors in your city or town?
