{Travel} Alexandria, Virginia

 We had a quick trip to Virginia and decided to stay in Alexandria for the night. We'd visited before but hadn't stayed over.  You can find all of our Washington, DC trips here.

We chose the Hampton Inn in Old Town  Alexandria because it was in a great location for walking around Old Town.  We could park the car and go everywhere on foot!  It was right on King Street.

We were pretty hungry and headed out for a late lunch after we checked in at the hotel. We had brunch at The Majestic Cafe on Kings Street.  We walked down Kings Street to the water.   There were so many little shops and restaurants along the way.
It was such a hot day but much cooler down by the water.
I could sit there, watching the boats all day!
We stopped for cappuccinos at For Five Coffee Roasters.  We cooled off back at the hotel and got ready for dinner.
We walked over to Theismann's for dinner.  Mr. Click had been there before and said it would be good. The location was perfect, right around the corner for the hotel.
I was happy they had vegan chorizo tacos. Yes please!
That asparagus was amazing too! After dinner we walked around Old Town for awhile until it started to rain.  We headed home in the morning but it was a fun little getaway!

What a fun getaway for you two! Love it that you could walk everywhere too. That makes it nice and surely helps with trying to find parking and the cost of gas these days! MERCY! Have a good week Heather Lou. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
