Happy Birthday Alexandria

Apparently Alexandria turned 259 over the weekend, so we went to celebrate with the residents. This was more like I thought July 4 would be: The Alexandria Symphony played Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture and Stars and Stripes Forever (click the link, I'm pretty sure that's NCADA), little kids had glow sticks, parents brought picnics, big fireworks over the water. It was great.

Afterward, we wandered over to Old Town and got "old fashioned" ice cream. Which tasted like normal ice cream to me. But it was yummy!
