A personal welcome from the Bard himself.
Inside the halls
Caesar sculpture on the outside.
THE best site in all of DC!!!The Folger Shakespeare Library was AWESOME! I was in absolute heaven. There were sculptures of scenes from the various plays along the sides of the building. The docent at the entry was a former English teacher from North Carolina and we hit it off immediately. She and another docent took us on the brief tour. Unless you're lucky enough to be doing actual research, the books here are off-limits too, but we saw a small theater, lots of Shakespeare memorabilia (including a First Folio!!!!!!!), and got to peek inside the reading room. The gift shop was small, but adequate. I got a Shakespeare bobble-head you just have to see. It's adorable!

Of course this post makes me green with envy! Can't wait to hear all about the details! We enjoyed taking care of the Maggie and Lucy though I hope that Kara has not scarred Lucy for life- Kara was very very fond of her! "Dat my new kitty- me likes her!"
