 Inside Kramerbooks, bar in
background by jetsetterforever
Kramerbooks is a novel idea which combines two essential themes, books and booze, in one. Part cafe/bar and part bookstore, Kramer's is open 24 hours on the weekends and serves as a great place to hangout. The bar is frequented by both locals and out-of-towners and it's a great place to strike up a conversation over a beer. Every evening from Wednesday to Saturday, they have live music from a variety of genres.
Hands down, I recommend Kramerbooks as a great place to hang out. I mean booze and books....what more could you possibly want? Leave a Comment Address: 1517 Connecticut Ave., NWDirections: Just above Dupont CircleWebsite: www.kramers.com/

This museum holds the world’s largest collection of historic spacecraft and aircraft. So whether you want to fly into the past with the Wright Brothers or slip into the future on Mars you will be at the right place. I'd rather fly than to understand all those technical details and rather made many captures for my husband. The price is right, as well, this one is free. b

If you are within a short walking distance the Mall is a wonderful place to have a picnic lunch. There are shaded areas along both sides and lunching there is common practice with the locals that work nearby. I suggest a blanket as the Mall lawn is not the cleanest place to lounge on the grass. It is bustling with activity at lunch and wonderful if you are a people watcher. Address: Capital Mall

The Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Concepcion is a great place to visit. It is probably the largest Catholic Church of America. Its Byzantine and Romanesque architecture, and the elaborate collections of mosaics and arts are very fascinating. Leave a Comment Address: 400 Michigan Ave NE

The interior of the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Mother Mary is very consecrated area. For me it is here a holy place. I usually do not make photos inside unless i have the chance to do so. During this visit, there were many churhgoers at the hall near the tabernacle. Leave a Comment
