I am so lucky to of been able to take a trip of a lifetime! As adults we all know how difficult it can be to make time with your best friends, let alone plan a trip with them....and when they live across the country. But if you want something bad enough, you make it happen. My first stop was to see my best friend in her new home, in Baltimore. My best friend and I have been friends for more than half our lives. We've witnessed ups and downs and mistakes and triumphs. We support each other whole-heartily and it's such a beautiful thing. I had no idea what to expect of the city, but I have to honestly say, it left an impression! The city and it's people have been through a lot, but the people are friendly and the city unique. I loved seeing all the adorable town homes and walking around the inner harbor. The day I arrived, the pink magnolias were still closed and the day I left, they were in full bloom and gorgeous to behold! 



 Ever since I could remember, we day dream of being artists living in New York, and living the city life. Maybe those days are ahead of us, but regardless of that it meant a lot to us to experience the city together. It wasn't our first time, but it was very special. Not only did we get to walk around the city, but we saw an opera at the Metropolitan Opera. We saw Lucia di Lammermoor. It was magnificent. The set brought tears to my eyes, in all it's beauty.

Then finally we traveled on to Washington D.C. I remember as a child dreaming of going to the Smithsonian. I LOVE history, especially American History. I love art even more, it was such a pleasure to visit the Smithsonian of American Art to see the portrait gallery of our American Presidents. It was such a sight to see Obama's Avant Garde portrait in person. The colors so rich, and striking. My best friend and I had an amazing time. We happened upon this adorable little coffee shop, and  I had a delicious croissant. Almost as good as the ones in Paris.
