A city located in the northern neck of Virginia. Alexandria was founded in 1749 and was home to the Franklin & Armfield Slave Market, one of the largest slave trading companies in the country. By the 1830s, they were sending more than 1,000 slaves annually from Alexandria to their Natchez, Mississippi, and New Orleans markets to help meet the demand for slaves in Mississippi and surrounding states. Mount Vernon the home and resting place of George Washington located south of Alexandria. It is known for its many sophisticated colonial homes along the river as well as tours of the plantation and more than a dozen outbuildings including the slave quarters, kitchen, stables, and greenhouse. Alexandria is also home to the George Washington Masonic National Memorial which was designed to be identical to the Lighthouse of Alexandria, Egypt. The city itself was built on freemasonry as there were many famous masons to live there. There are many parts of the city to explore such as Del-Ray, Arlanda, Old Town, West End, North Ridge, and many areas outside the city limits although they carry an Alexandria postal address. There are many sites of interests in the city and being 6 miles from Washington D.C. it's hard to run out of things to do. Virginia is for lovers.

Get the Alexandra mug.Alexandria Bridge is a term morons use when they mean to describe the inter-provincial Alexandra Bridge, which spans the Ottawa River between Ottawa, Ontario and Gatineau, Quebec.
Jeff: Did you see the checkpoints that Sûreté du Québec set up at the Alexandria Bridge?
Dan: I think you mean the Alexandra Bridge, ass clown. Why are you crossing the bridge at all? You should be practicing physical distancing and staying home, not walking to Maxi in Hull to save a few bucks. Or at least go dumpster-diving closer to home. Jeff, I don't even know who you are anymore!?!?!

Get the Alexandria Steemer mug.She is creative and strong willed, and she may be a person who you will need most at times even if you are not aware of it. However it is advisable to not always rely on her for she can be lazy at most times. Despite this she is always ready for a laugh and will be a surprising friend to you, because she believes she is a good friend, although you might think she's mistaken at first.
Person 1: Isn't that Alexandra Mary doodling over there?
Person 2: Yes, she is so creative, that's why she's good at art.
