Yeah, we weren't certain, but when Margaret and her traveling companion, Hannah, knocked on doors, strangers gave them candy ... just like they do every where else in the country. Awesome.
Mar and Hannah spend their Halloween in costume at the Zoo, on canal barge tour, trick-or-treating at the lovely boutiques in Georgetown (that was really fun) and doing some traditional trick-or-treating in our hotel's neighborhood — which was probably the most awesome neighborhood ever. All the houses were decorated and everybody was out enjoying the gorgeous fall weather.
Definitely a great place to celebrate Halloween.

If you look very carefully, there's a giant panda at the back of that exhibit.
On the C&O Canal barge tour.Despite Margaret's look of utter boredom, this was really an interesting and relaxing tour on a mule-drawn barge.
