Our February Northeast Travel Club was a huge success! We had 21 join us on a fun trip to Washington DC! We spent Saturday afternoon/evening at Dave And Busters Silver Springs where many locals came to join us, including some new faces! We then headed to our lovely accommodation to settle in for the night. Sunday we had a jam-packed day full of sightseeing in DC including Lincoln Memorial, Reflecting Pool, World War II Memorial. and the Washington Monument. It looked so pretty with all the snow and we took lots of photos! We then headed to the White House for a photo and then a Camp On Tour favorite- Yard House -for lunch! We spent the afternoon exploring the National Air and Space museum and got to catch an amazing Planetarium Show before heading back to our accommodation for the evening!
We had an awesome time this MLK weekend! On arrival to a snowy Philadelphia, we explored the Reading Terminal Market and enjoyed a variety of food including Philly Cheesesteaks! We then headed straight for the sites and walked a short route to the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall. We stopped at the National Museum of American Jewish History before dinner at Chilli's! Everyone did a great job sticking to the budget and making their own order with the waitress! On Sunday we went straight to The Franklin Institute where we spent hours exploring the museum and even saw a really cool Planetarium Show! We then walked to the Rocky statue and some even ran up all the way up the 72 steps just as Rocky did in the movie! Snow started to fall again, so we went back to the hotel for a little rest hour before enjoying a choice dinner at local restaurants and spent the rest of the evening hanging out in the lobby together!
