Sunday 16^th December

Today we again headed to Foggy Bottom from where we then walked to Georgetown, the harbourside of Washington to have our brunch at “Farmers Fishers and Bakers”.  This restaurant is a buffet style and there was plenty of variety in the types of food available.  

We are not used to meats and salad being available at a brunch, however these were on offer along with other types of food including French toast with glazed bananas, pancakes, tacos with many fillings and cakes.  The waiters constantly came to us offering small finger foods of sushi, crumbed shrimp, cinnamon rolls and hot biscuits (scones),  Bottomless coffee accompanied the brunch, so we paid for it in terms of disturbed sleep last night!!!!

Our window table gave us a birds eye view of the harbor ice skating rink where we saw a few spills as well as a few very talented skaters doing their thing.

After our brunch we strolled along the cobblestone paths off the main road of Georgetown soaking in the fact that today we are USA in the cooler weather and that this time next week we will be home for Christmas in Canberra with air conditioning keeping us cool – oh the contrast of travel.
