Library of Congress

Had a chance to explore the Library of Congress last week and I am always impressed with this building!  Absolutely stunning- this is the type of buildings that make me love being in DC!

Oak Hill Cemetery and The Shrine

It was such an unseasonably warm day last week so I took some personal photography time to explore some DC gems I've always wanted to see!

First up was the Oak Hill Cemetery in Georgetown.  This place is so old and so huge- it was interesting to see the range in dates of the people memorialized there and the calm and serene space right in the middle of the city.

Next came the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception- a huge and beautiful cathedral near Catholic University.  It is extremely massive and the mosaic work on the inside is absolutely beautiful!

Lastly I drove through the United States Soldiers’ and Airmen’s Home National Cemetery- one of the country’s oldest national cemeteries.  

Italy Part 5: back to Rome

We finished our wonderful trip to Italy back in Rome where we toured the Vatican and enjoyed our last few days of amazing and wonderful food!  We even did a little photo shoot on the streets of Rome...just because!
