Park run at Anacostia

 Bus stop was about a ten minute walk from hotel, cost $2.25 each to go one trip. Feed the money, no change. We travelled 17 stops or 30 minutes and had another ten minutes walk to the start.

Every one was so friendly even just chatting to people on the street. I did the bar coe scanning. After we met some of the runners at the local Cafe. I ordered and went to pay  and discovered that it had already been paid. Not sure which one did it but I thanked the table.

Sunny day but windy.
A block full of food trucks
Amazing murals around the city and amazingly, no tagging.
Had to find the big chair

Button to press to go across the road and it talks! If it is a big red hand, it says Wait! Once the walk sign comes on it then says "you can walk, you have 25 seconds" neat hey.

Another mural, this one was one of three on a wall and done as a mosaic. 
We were in an area that never had segregation.  

This was my lunch at Capital city Cafe, it is a community Cafe. One guy was doing the coffees and food but there seemed to be minders and one gave us a free coffee voucher as we had a longer wait. We were people watching as no dramas at all.
