“We had an awesome trip to Kakadu National Park in the Northern Territory of Australia. Kakadu is a really special place – UNESCO Heritage listed for both its cultural and natural offerings. It’s an amazing mix of wetlands, rivers, dry scrub, open canopy forest, and escarpment. We saw an array of wildlife ranging from birds, bats, snakes, spiders, fish, crocodiles and wallabies. Kakadu is also home to many important and sacred spaces to the indigenous population. We included a few photos of some of the rock art, but chose not to take photos of rock art telling Dreamtime stories.

PoP t-shirts travelled to the top of Gunlom Falls to swim in the pools, climbed to Nawurlandja Lookout to gaze at Burrunggui/Anbangbang and the Arnhem Land escarpment at sunset, and trekked to Nanguluwurr art site to see drawings dating back more than 20,000 years. There are things we couldn’t photograph, like being out on the wetlands with a guide at night, and the stars so bright we could see them in the water and they lighted the way.”

Thanks to a reader for sending this beauty spotted downtown.

Eater DC shares the news:

“superstar chef Daniel Boulud will open a DBGB Kitchen & Bar in the city.”

Eater also says that Boulud has been negotiating for a space in CityCenter near the Convention Center. Stay tuned.

From Boulud’s website:

DBGB Kitchen and Bar is Chef Daniel Boulud’s downtown place where the French brasserie meets the American tavern. Guests enjoy 12 varieties of house-made sausage, mouthwatering burgers and towering shellfish platters, in addition to seasonal Lyonnais-inspired bistro cooking. For beer lovers, there are over 20 drafts to choose from and another 75 by-the bottle, plus a full wine list. At dessert, dig into the classics: baked Alaska, soufflés and ice cream sundaes. Interiors take their cue from the Bowery’s history as New York’s industrial restaurant supply neighborhood with floor to ceiling shelves stocked with the restaurant’s own tools, tableware and dry goods overlook a partially open kitchen. The sidewalk café, open seasonally, is the perfect spot to enjoy weekend brunch, weekday lunch or dinner in warm weather. The private room tucked away through the kitchen accommodates parties for up to 18 people with a view of all the live action at the stove.

You can see their menus here.

Thanks to a couple of readers for sending word of this relic revealed on 14th Street in Logan Circle. For those not familiar Kozmo was:

a venture-capital-driven online company that promised free one-hour delivery of “videos, games, dvds, music, mags, books, food, basics & more” and Starbucks coffee in several major cities in the United States. It was founded by young investment bankers Joseph Park and Yong Kang in March 1998 in New York City, and was out of business by April 2001.

1728 14th Street, NW was home to the old brick building that will become:

“four floors with 28,000 square feet of retail and office space.”

“Poppy and Grendel taking a nap in Shaw.”

“Clooney of 16th Street Heights, rescued from the streets of Adams Morgan as a starving kitten two summers ago.”

“Hayley from Kingman Park trying to be invisible after stealing a sandwich.”

Ha! Awesome. Thanks to a reader for sending from the San Diego airport.
