I was never a Harry Potter fan past the age of 12. To really enjoy a book like those in the Harry Potter series, one has to believe that Harry's world, full of magic and wizardry, exists somewhere. But at 12, I was shocked by one of two truths I would have to face every time I read and inhabited the world of "the boy who lived": either Harry Potter and the world he offered was all a sham or, since I still went to a normal middle school and had not received a mysterious letter beckoning me to Hogwarts, Harry Potter's world had passed me by all together, and I was a Muggle.

Beyond the staple diet of monuments and museums, the District houses an array of events and restaurants to keep even the most veteran Washingtonians enticed. Below is just a sample of the typical AU haunts.

D.C. offers up its fair share of impressive native musical acts. Below, you'll find just a few of the great artists the city has to offer.
