On Sunday, I took Caleb and Joshua to explore Georgetown. I promised magical staircases and secret doorways, and Georgetown delivered beautifully. We descended the stairs made famous in the end of the Exorcist (a story I omitted to tell the little boys), explored the campus of Georgetown University, and spent a lot of time walking along the riverfront.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were a few too many people to be comfortable during a pandemic, but we kept our masks on and kept to ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The highlight for the boys was finding a labyrinth in the park. A labyrinth is supposed to be an Irish tool for spiritual reflection<\/a>, but the boys had enormous fun playing with it as a maze. We even encountered a breakdancer who danced for us in the middle for a few moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the end of the day, though, all the boys wanted to do was find a playground. We stopped at an empty playground by a church on the way home, and they were perfectly content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The whole day reminded me that small adventures are still adventures.<\/p>\n\n\n
