Holiday Washington DC in Nov 2025

Woke at 3:30am - Vick is dealing with the jet lag better than I am at the mo. Intending on going up the aerial tramway this morning, and it’s going to be cold up there, so we have brought our hats, gloves and scarves with us.

Unsurprisingly we woke around 3am - bit early for us to be honest. Decided to pick up a Starbucks at 3:30am which must be the earliest Starbucks ever for us.
