Today we traveled someplace new - National Harbor Place. It's a new "town" that has been built in Prince Georges County right on the river. I know, those of you that know the reputation of "PG" County are thinking what or why would you want to go. We decided to visit a children's activity place that just opened. Eventually, in 2013, the National Capital Children's Museum http://www.ncm.museum/home will open to the public at National Harbor Place. But for now, they have a very small activity center. The threesome had no preschool today so they enjoyed building, drawing and exploring at the activity center. To our pleasant surprise, National Harbor Place is a beautiful place! Seriously! Gorgeous murals everywhere. Everything is new from the ground up, lots of shops and restaurants will be opening in the coming year. Today we explored by walking around, watching boats and planes go by and trying out a new Mexican restaurant. One of the things the kids really enjoyed was collecting shells. Instead of surfacing certain areas with rocks, they used crushed shells - boy can that keep kids occupied! The weather was beautiful, we were on the water (wish the water was cleaner) - a great way to spend a Friday! p.s. Disney just bought property there to build a hotel resort - hope that dream comes true! http://www.nationalharbor.com/
