I flew to Washington, D.C. to attend my 60th High School Reunion at Geogetown Visitation Preparatory School for Girls. It was also the 225th anniversary of the school — founded in 1799, adjacent to Georgetown University.
On our first night my sister Anne and I met classmate Terry Cummins and husband John for dinner at Chang Chang, a Chinese restaurant in D.C. She had to miss the reunion due to a family wedding.
This was Anne’s first trip to DC since she was three so the next day was sightseeing. We saw the Jefferson Memorial, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Capitol.
We were staying at the Geogetown Inn and across the street was the oldest tavern in D.C., Martin’s Tavern. We were seated in the booth where John Kennedy proposed to Jackie — kinda cool!
Anne wanted to see the zoo and the day was beautiful so we did that after lunch. Then, we had liked the tavern so much that we went back for dinner.
The next morning we visited the Supreme Court and attended a wonderful lecture about the Court. We were not allowed to take pictures in the courtroom, but could take some standing outside beyond the entry looking in.
I introduced Anne to Indian food with a trip to Rafika, the top Indian restaurant in D.C. The food was wonderful and the decor beautirul.
I showed Anne the house in which I lived and Blessed Sacrament Church and School that I had attended.
Then my reunion began; here are some pictures from that.
And sent from DeeDee…..
The reunion was so much fun and it was so wonderful to see all these women!
