5.00Not a really long tour but entertaining and educational. Katrina and her sweet doggie Romeo were our guides and Katrina was funny and so knowledgeable! Mary Washington was an extraordinary woman! Best of all I think our Zelda and Romeo really made a connection, ahh, puppy love! Thanks, Katrina for the restaurant suggestion. They allowed both Zelda and Lily to sit inside! Food WAS wonderful!
Totally fun experience

Mary Washington was truly a role model! I have to include a picture of our Boston Zelda with Katrina’s sweet doggie Romeo. Puppy love…😍
