Citi Open in Washington DC

It's my least week on this project. The client is taking a brake and kicking out the primary SI. WHo knows if I'll be back. But guess what's in town!

The Citi Open is here and I got me some cheap tickets! Was here for two days. The first day I spent a little more to get a decent seat. $60 was for lower level under an over hang. Protect me from the rain. The second day was only $25 because I knew I didn't need to "reserve" a seat. These guys let you sit anywhere as long as you had a ticket.

Yes. There were some big names here and I got to see them for cheap. One thing I learned is to watch in the early rounds. Not everyone can play on the main court so you can see your favs on the side courts and get really close.

Yes... That's my home girl Genie! Look, I sat behind Genie's coach and her trainer!

Toronto... This time when it's warmer!

Now that I have a chance to return to Toronto

Montreal

I really like Montreal.... The more I visit, the smaller this city becomes.

London / Wimbledon

Yay for tennis!

Palma Majorca

Can you say Mediteranean sun?!?

Barcelona

Roma

The first destination of my 2017 summer travels is Rome. I loved Roman history in school. Yes, History was a fun class when we went over this time period of our past. There is something about the era that I find very interesting. There are also so many movies about this time period that make it so interesting. At any rate here I am!

Before I forget, here are the details of the trip...

Airbnb accommodations from July 2nd to 5th. We basically stay across the street from this cafe. Nice quiet area although we stayed right next to a bar which was great for late night drinks and short walks back home!

From the airport we took the train to the Roma Ostiense stop and walked to the Airbnb. 

Once we got settled in we either walked, used the subway, and used a taxi/uber to get around.
