We had brunch (very early lunch) at The Afghan Market and then drove to Great Falls on the Maryland, where we walked along the C&O Canal, and also took the path to see waterfalls. We then took various trails and climbed many rocks. It was exhilaratingly fun, climbing steep trails and stepping rock to rock. It wasn't too sunny and it was a relatively cool day with clear blue skies that backdropped the waterfalls beautifully.
We ate dinner at China Chilcano, a fusion of Peruvian, Japanese, and Chinese food, and it was delicious, though their one 3-inch in diameter pork belly sandwich was not worth $8.
It's my last day in DC and it couldn't have been more fulfilling than it was. It has been an amazing 9 weeks here in DC and Bethesda, both exploring both cities, and interning at NIH. Tomorrow, I start the drive home and then reality (or the next chapter in life) hits me. Senior year, college apps and everything else, here I come!
Thank you to everyone who has supported my internship and experience here, but also to anyone who has visited this blog: it is nice to know that my words and experiences, however unimportant they may be, are read by people who do care to know.
