Father's Day and Anniversary, Part Deux

21 Jun

We decided to have a low-key Sunday to celebrate both things today so we ended up in Old Town Alexandria and went to the Waterfront Festival. The clouds ended up rolling out and it turned into a beautiful day! The only disappointment of the day was the Waterfront Festival. Neither one of us could figure out what all the hype was about. There were people selling random things, some rides for kids and a few guys trying to convince us to install new windows in our house. We walked around a little while and the coolest part was the tall ship from Philadelphia. The Gazela was a fishing ship for many years but now travels up and down the eastern seaboard with an all-volunteer crew. The crew was super nice and we got to see them rigging up the sails. We both think it would be pretty cool to sail on one for a few days.

Since we were in Old Town and did not want to eat at the festival- we went to one of our favorite restaurants and grabbed a late lunch. So, it was a great Father’s Day First Anniversary First Day of Summer kind of Sunday!
