After exploring Washington D.C., we quickly realized that the cost of accommodation was out of our budget. So, we decided to camp at Greenbelt Federal Park in Maryland, just a short 20-minute drive away from the city. The streets were easy to navigate, with numbers for north and south and alphabets for east to west, making it a breeze to get around. Despite a few odd homeless individuals, we found the city to be incredibly clean and safe.
One of the highlights of our trip to Washington D.C. was the abundance of free museums and art galleries. We couldn't believe that we could see so many incredible exhibits without having to spend a single penny. However, our experience at the local Walmart and McDonald's left us in awe. The Walmart was enormous, with over 30 cashiers and only one refund clerk. We couldn't even see one end of the store to the other! The downtown McDonald's was equally impressive, with a separate counter larger than most McDonald's dedicated solely to selling and making desserts.
Now, we're off to our next destination: the Outer Banks in North Carolina. We can't wait to see what adventures await us there!
