A short Metro ride from Washington DC, Alexandria, Virginia is the perfect escape from the fast-paced capital. First settled in 1695, the city retains its colonial spirit, with cobblestone streets and historic buildings in the Old Town, Gadsby's Tavern, a restaurant serving food since 1770, and centers of learning like the Black History Museum. For a more contemporary side of Alexandria, wander the streets of the stylish Del Ray neighborhood, where local artists operate boutiques and studios.

We were actually on the Sun Goddess, a sister ship to the Moon Goddess. The ship was renovared in the last year or two and everything looked new and clean. The cruise was lovely and stopped in all the right places. The food was really good and wholesome. We did not know of a single person who developed GI issues. Overall the staff and service were excellent.
