I wrote in an earlier post about this grand hotel of Washington, D.C.: The Mayflower, a Renaissance Marriott hotel. I just stayed there again and got to see it decorated for Christmas. I’d though I’d share this beautiful photo of its lobby area decorated for the holiday season.
Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah to all!
Part of the fun of traveling, besides the travel itself, is the experiences that happen along the way. Getting hopelessly lost in eastern France, getting stuck in a public restroom in Versailles, finding a tucked away neighborhood park in touristy Venice, being tossed into a stranger's car in the Sinai peninsula, discovering the most mouth-watering wines in Mendoza, etc. all enhance the travel experience. 15 years of travel writing, first just emails to friends and family as I went around the world and as of 2008, via this blog!

I love the festive season! It gets me every time. I’ve heard nothing but great things about the Mayflower.

Charu, good to hear from you! Yes, the hotel retains its elegance even as it decorates for the holidays. Pretty neat hotel.
