G-berg to G-town

Ok people.... today, began with Eastern Market, definitely the best way to start a Saturday!!!! :) Me and Jesse got up and went and looked around. We browsed then came across this AWESOME booth, with headbands, "hats", and barretts. She is from New Zealand, but lives in Charleston, SC. She uses vintage fabric, ribbon, jewelry and such and combines them to make headbands stuff... think "royal wedding"-esque... so.. AWESOME!!!!!! She really liked us so she made us try basically every single one on... we didn't mind. She was so sweet. I loved her story and her things... needless to say we purchased a creation of hers... or two ;) Here is an example... She styled my hair around it too...



Next came crepes from the crepe guy... an excellent decision made... plus freshly squeezed lemonade... SO good!!!! This is my favorite "eat" at Eastern Market! He probably makes 200-300 crepes in the morning... Y'all... seriously his crepes are fantastic! I got one with blueberries, blackberries, and peaches and sweet cheese... OM stars!


then we headed back to the apartment to move... :( 
It took us like 30 loads and 2 taxi vans and almost $150 to get our stuff over to Georgetown.... Then we had to carry everything up... about 5flights of stairs, equivalent to (that is)... all of which were outside in the heat and humidity of G-town... We didn't have cleaning stuff so we went to CVS and got some things, then stopped in at the Marvelous Market and had lunch, followed by Argentinian gelato, a swell decision. We also saw some beautiful G-town houses.

Then I went to meet up with Eugene and Blake at the Smithsonian... I had to trek across the key bridge and then walk some more, but I didn't care. I was so excited to see them and see a friendly/familiar face! We all walked to China town and as they ate lunch, i went to Bed bath and beyond for supplies... Then told them bye, which was sad, and then headed back to the apt.

I was exhausted but we decided to go out to get dinner, we went to Mr. Smiths and got a burger and it was delish!!!! Then came back to unpack and then i got distracted, haha. Excited for sleep tonight... I am pooooooooped!
