Dear Ethan,
I hope you are having a good time in Washington DC. I guess you are busy
during the week, but there is a lot to do there. You know I've had holidays in Washington,
D.C. several times, and I have visited many places in its vicinity. I'll sometimes e-mail
you to recommend some activities and places.
Perhaps, one of the best places nearby is Alexandria. You should see it as
soon as possible. It's a great place to explore the waterfront and enjoy the centuries-
old architecture and souvenir shops of a lakeside district. When I was there for the last
time, three months ago, I liked the sea food best. You should try it. There are several
restaurants close to the lake and almost all are nice. I have tried all of them :) Don't
worry about the prices.
I have enjoyed the sunny and rainy weather there and either is nice. Don't
change your plans due to the weather conditions. Give it a go at anytime. Most love
taking a ride on the free King Street Trolley, but I've never tried it. One more thing...
Don't miss the oldest farmers market in the country. I've visited it several times, and
I'm still thinking of seeing it again. It's special because George Washington sold his
products there. It is close to Washington, D.C., so you can take the train, subway or
even bike. The last time I was there, I took the train. It is comfortable and cheap. You
should try that. You'll become a fan of that place. Let me know when you go there.
Bye, Auntie Jane
