Winter Break

We talked about winter break in class the other day, and I spent part of my time in Washington D.C. While I was there I found this bookstore that my dad used to go to all the time when he was working in the Senator's office. It was a really unique and interesting experience walking around where my dad spent his years fresh out of law school. The bookstore had two levels, a coffee bar, and a space for author's signings. Hearing me describe it doesn't do it justice, because it felt like home to me. Like someone could just walk inside, sit down, and feel like they had lived there all their life. It certainly happened to me. I found a book full of short stories, with one page written in English and the opposite in Spanish. I am hoping that this catalyzes my goal of fluency in the Spanish language, although I am well aware I have a long way to go in that respect. When my dad comes home from his business trip, I'll post a link to their website. It is definitely a cool place you should check out if you ever happen to find yourself in Washington D.C.!
