The sun is coming out and the snow
is finally melting… So what else is there to do in this area? We may not have
very many activities to do in our city, although we do live in the D.C. area! There
are endless possibilities, you just have to get up and look for them. But that’s
ok… I can give you something to do! You may be familiar with Old Towne,
Alexandria with it’s many outdoor events in the spring time and extensive
streets filled with shops. You can never be bored there! Did you know that with
a short drive across the Woodrow Wilson Bridge or a boat ride across the Potomac
River, you can find yourself in Maryland and in a completely different atmosphere?
There are just as many things to do in the National Harbor!
This is a newly developed area and
has transformed this once empty land to a flourishing bright city with many
activities. As the weather warms up, they start to have public viewings of
movies outside on the lawn and on the Fourth of July they have their own fireworks.
In recent events at the National
Harbor, they have decided to put up a Ferris wheel at the end of the dock
closest to the bridge. This Ferris wheel will have a 176 foot view of the
Washington Monument, the Capital, and much much more! You can go on the
National Harbor’s website and watch it be developed with a mobile webcam set up
focusing on the Ferris wheel.
Right down the street is a newly
opened outlet mall! Tanger Outlets extended their branches to Oxon Hill,
Maryland. The National Harbor Tanger Outlets feature over 85 brands to shop
from.
