Jen & Andy and I met up on a Sunday morning in Shirlington Village. ( Please read the following in a British accent) I had never heard of it before but it turned out to be one of those hidden gems where you can walk 10 meters and shoot 4 different looks. The Village at Shirlington opened as Shirlington Shopping Center in 1944, and was the first large shopping center to open in the Washington, D.C. suburbs and one of the earliest in the United States. So needless to say it was full of life and character. I loved the colorful walls and the interesting architecture. Plus the dog park that Jen & Andy frequent was only a stones throw across the street. ( end British accent )
