Today I went to Washington and saw the White House. The local squirrels are fat, stripeless and totally fearless.
Most of the buildings in downtown Washington look like they're at least a few centuries old. They did not seem very tall, but I counted the floors on one and it had 12. Almost every building in the area is about the same height. They don't look very tall though because they are wider than they are tall.
The Washington monument is several times taller than any of these buildings—the one in Baltimore (the original) is a mere midget in comparison.

Not sure. I saw it in 1990 :)) when I was 11....
Didn't really see the point then. Think it was that squarish building with pillars all around and the guy sitting on a chair in the centre (statue!)
