    For today’s adventure, we decided to walk around the campus of Georgetown University. Izzy and I hadn’t been in a while and it was very cool to see the campus where my parents went to college. 

     The walk to the Georgetown area is 20 minutes from Koko’s house. It doesn’t seem that bad but it was terrible since we had to walk in 93 degree heat and 90-95% humidity, which made us all hot and sticky. Somehow we eventually made it and stopped at Booey Mongers, a sandwich shop that my mom used to eat at when she was a student at Georgetown University. I got a steak egg and cheese sandwich that was really good but I was creeped out because there was a centipede crawling on the floor around us.

    After eating lunch, we walked further in the heat until we finally made it to the campus of Georgetown University. We started off by going into the store for Georgetown apparel, and we got a lot of clothing. I got a white Georgetown hoodie, and also a Georgetown dog bandana for our dog Noodle since he wears bandanas. 

   

Next we walked to their football field, which was kind of cool to see even though they have terrible football. However, right near the football stadium was the John Thompson athletic center which is named after the famous Georgetown University basketball coach. It was a cool building because it had all the sports trophies that Georgetown had won and I got to see the 1984 NCAA basketball trophy that they won with Patrick Ewing. 

     That was the last building we went into in the campus of Georgetown, and we walked along the Potomac off of the campus to a part of Georgetown that had more shops. After spending some more money, we walked down to a water park on K street, and we didn’t get completely soaked but we walked under the sprinklers some times. This water park is right next to the Potomac so it was cool to see the natural water while running through the sprinklers in the park.

    At the end of the day, we ordered Indian food for dinner, which I hadn’t had in a while so I was unsure about whether I would like it or not. But, after having it I can say its very good.
