<<< Mary Poppins >>> Doubletree Hotel

8/3/2010

In coincidence with our anniversary, we took Margaret to DC to spend the night and to see Mary Poppins at the Kennedy Center. We stayed at the Doubletree on New Hampshire Ave NW in DC. Dinner was at the Roof Terrace Restaurant in the Kennedy Center.

We took Buddy to the Kennel and then left Margaret’s at 1145. We stopped in Cambridge at Snappers Restaurant for lunch. We checked into the Doubletree Hotel on New Hampshire NW at about 1600. We went to the Roof Terrace Restaurant and Bar on the south end of the building for dinner. The performance of Mary Poppins was excellent. Wednesday morning, the GPS took us through downtown Washington. We stopped at Denny's for brunch and had Margaret at her house by 1330.

After lunch at Snappers, we were back on the road for DC. We made good time until we were in downtown DC on New York Avenue. Here, the traffic caught up with us and we crawled west across the city. We finally pulled up to the Doubletree Hotel at 1600. A very nice bellman unloaded the car, parked it and took us up stairs. We had a very nice room, complete with a separate bedroom and a kitchen. Margaret promptly went down for a nice nap. At 1730, we headed for the Roof Terrace Restaurant and Bar.
