Alexandria - Sunday Afternoon in "Old Town"

I had some fun this weekend. I drove the full 10 minutes down to Alexandria (ironically, where I worked all weekend to wrap up a project) to explorer "old town" with my friend Isabel.

We checked out a seafood spot, then walked through the art studios at "The Torpedo Factory" and then hit the waterfront boardwalk and a park. It was a fun time.

I can tell you that I haven't done so much walking in my life since I've moved to the D.C. area. I walk atleast a mile every day for work and then miles more on the weekends and this is all just where it all starts, but it's good. I'm loving it.

So below are a few quick video clips I grabbed with my cheap digital camera (you should be able to see this in higher quality on youtube itself) and below that is a slide show of photos I took. Enjoy!



And here are the photos. If you would like to see a full screen slideshow of Old Town Alexandria and the Torpedo Factory click here.



For those of you who are still reading, I will get photos up very soon of my place and neighborhood, but I only just got my place mostly put together, so I am nearly ready for that photo-shoot.
