Emily's in DC for the holidays!

Emily is in DC for the holidays and happy to be exploring, shopping, and finding all the new places to say cheers. Here's where you come in: where else should she go?

Below are some of the places she's looking to check out!   

Taking it a few days at a time - there are so many wonderful exhibits - the Smithsonian is top of the list! 

Cork Wine Bar - 14th Street

Trying new restaurants and bars is a must! This bar features lesser known labels and masterfully pairs foods to the tasting menu for a rich and delicious experience. 

The Capitol Building

Aside from sheer fascination with our history, Emily has been watching Designated Survivor, an ABC TV series about a man (Kiefer Sutherland) who becomes the President after a catastrophic event destroys the Capitol Building during the State of the Union. 

That being said, it's a must to see the Lincoln Memorial, the White House, and the monument (among others and others) as well! 

Newseum

Newseum is considered one of the most interactive museums in the world and traces the evolution of electronic communication. It's been rated one of the best museums in the US. Can't wait! 

Georgetown 

Fun to shop, sight see, and drink coffee, Georgetown will be fun for a night out. 

So really, where else should Em go? Let us know in the comments below...

| Q & A with Em | What camera did you use?

This is just my phone camera or snapchat camera! Amazing, huh?

Well, how'd you make them look like that?

I use an awesome app called VSCO Cam. It's free for phones, but there is also a computer version that syncs to photoshop lightroom that's supposedly amazing.
