Covid-19 Norms and Standards
While we know case numbers are on the decline and vaccinations are on the uptick, locals are still being relatively careful indoors. The majority of Washingtonians are vaccinated (62% over 18).
You will get funny looks if you are not wearing a mask indoors. You can take off your mask if seated indoors or outdoors. Masks are also required on public transportation.

Bring Sneakers + A Tennis Racket!
If you're looking to get a workout sans mask, we love the new courts up at Montrose Park or in Volta Park. They're each a 5-minute walk from the apartment.

A Pizza + Aperol Spritz at Café Milano!
Missing international travel? Us, too. Head down to Café Milano for some outdoor dining that will transport you to Italy. The service is fantastic and Covid-safe. The pizza is delicious, but the pasta is even better. Tell Laurent (the manager) that Meaghan sent you.
