Old town Alexandria waterfront area (holiday boat parade of lights)

It was very crowded with people and cars on the street. Had to drive over 30 mins to find a parking space around the area and finally managed to get a spot about 20mins walk from the water front. So hard to find a parking

If you have some time to kill around georgetown I recommend going to Chesapeake and Ohio canal towpath to take a walk. It is calm and beautiful when the weather is good.
