oh man oh man oh man
I love D.C.
the memorials and stuff are cool
the WWII memorial is one of the coolest imo, might that have been one of the "few other places?"
the cemetery is also very cool. I've got an irrational soft spot for the military, so when I noticed a funeral was going on somewhere, with the guns and all, I almost cried ;~;
but as cool as all of these things are
the less-famous parts of the city (that is, the parts where people actually live and do daily things) are way cooler
but it doesn't even come close to NYC
I've only been there once, and it was only for a couple of days, but I absolutely fell in love with that place
and I've been to D.C. twice, for a total of about a full week
