Started walk 10 min ago with special guest star: my sister!

P.S. Sidewalks the whole way. Not always in pristine condition, but they were there.

Today's leg: from Silver Springs to Rhode Island Ave (with continuation to RI Metro).

Made it to the Metro. Whew.

Definitely cannot walk and drink out of a wide mouth nalgene bottle at the same time.

Border walk for today is done. 5 w. Now I have to get to the Metro. Stay tuned...

No sidewalk on DC side. Very curious. 3 w.

Brick square house row.

An unexpected national park greenspace. 32 walkers.

My trick knee has decided to be tricky.

The biggest hill I've seen in DC is just ahead. Lots of for sale signs around here.

Pedestrian bump past any Metro stop and then immediately I'm alone again. 20+ walkers.

20 walkers so far; narrow brick sidewalks.

Gorgeous, rich smell of Ethiopian foods drifting by.

And the walk begins- trying out this gps app we'll see how well it works...

Waiting on the train. Should be great weather for this leg.

Walk went from Lincoln Memorial, around all of Potomac National Park, ending at the Waterfront.

Sandwich and Scrimshaw pils acquired. Resting is good.

Walk ended. Next on the agenda: lunch and beers.

Now I know where to go for all my seafood needs...
