Having completed my recent whirlwind trip to Washington DC, the following is a slideshow of my Flickr photos.  More about my trip later when I’ve had time to gather my thoughts.

I’m mostly doing it this way first because my brain is all scrambled.  I went to so many places!

Unfortunately, I feel that I don’t get to say that as often about tea as I do coffee. I write this as I’m enjoying the Morraccan Mint Green Tea (pictured) at Teaism in Dupont Circle, Washington DC.

I can get a decent cup of coffee anywhere really and while the availability of tea increased at Starbucks and the selection of Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf is always nice, the tea place seems but a sad novelty.

Or perhaps my feeling of novelty right now is because I’m just basking in the moment, where I get to sit here and leisurely drink tea. Truth be told, while it’d be nice to leisurely drink a cup of coffee, it too is but a rare occasion.

Maybe it’s less about what the caffeinated beverage is and more the time and place to enjoy it.
