More of Bethesda...

February 17, 2012 (Friday)

I showed you pictures of beautiful fountains on our trip to DC last fall.  Tully was 5 1/2 months old then and he enjoyed watching them.  We were disappointed that they were all closed for the winter during this trip; the temps were great being in the upper 60's and low 70's, but I guess technically February is still winter.

This is still a cool fountain, but not the same without the water.

This fountain is the one that flowed down the wall,
traveled through the trough into the white bowl,
and then spilled over into the larger pool...
again it is interesting, but again so much better with water!

Tully's stroller could not be sitting there if the water had been flowing.  Despite the dry fountains, we did find many beautiful gardens of pansies throughout the Bethesda area.

It didn't take much to make Tully happy, he just loved being out and about!

The city has lots of architecture throughout it's landscape and buildings, it truly is a beautiful city.

We found this entrance that had multiple rows of flower pots,
even the sidewalks are beautiful,
many with granite or with inlays and designs.

We saw high rises...

...but yet, we strolled along streets with quaint little shops.

These are just a few pictures while on our afternoon stroll.  Tomorrow we head to the airport to return home.  I'm sure Tully will be excited to see his Daddy!
