Arriving in DC!
18 Temmuz 2024, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C
My alarm went off in Rio at 4am meaning it was time to pack the last of my belongings and head to the airport! I had a very very long day ahead of me as I made my way to Washington DC as my first stop of the US (and final) leg of the trip.

I had 3 flights to catch, Rio > Bogota > San Salvador > Washington DC, all with Avianca. The main highlight of the trip was enjoying a muffin and £3.80 glasses of rose during the 6 hour layover in San Salvador.

Unfortunately none of the plane seats reclined even an inch, so sleep was hard to come by but maybe I managed 1.5 hours in total.

This was highly unfortunate as my final flight arrived into DC at 4:45am, so I had a full day ahead of me also.

After batting off a few routine questions at immigration I took a very empty metro towards the hostel I was hoping to check into.Okumaya devam et

Early at the White House
19 Temmuz 2024, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☁️ 23 °C
My metro stop for the hostel was around the corner from the White House, so I couldn't resist going to have a quick look. It was 6:45am so the only people there seemed to be journalists. I also didn't want to get too close to the gates with my big bags so looked on from a distance.

I then managed to book my hostel in person after some suspicion and unwelcoming words (I think they might have thought I was a homeless man and I really don't blame them).

I couldn't check in until 3pm but they gave me a towel to have a shower which was nice. I then headed for breakfast at the supermarket and rediscovered BAKED BEANS!!!!!Okumaya devam et

Judicial Quarter
19 Temmuz 2024, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☁️ 23 °C
For my first day in DC I didn't have any real plan other than wander around some of the main attractions and see what I could find.

I started the day close to my hostel at the judicial quarter. I didn't know it was the judicial quarter until a British guy on his way to work (in the courts) started speaking to me whilst waiting at the traffic lights. Think he was surprised to be speaking to a fellow Brit as his accent definitely changed once I'd told him so.

On this route included the FBI office, law enforcement memorial, DC Court of Appeals and Abraham Lincoln statue.Okumaya devam et

Approach to the Capitol
19 Temmuz 2024, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C
My first main stop of the day was to the US Capitol building, home to the Senate and House of Representatives, and the site of the infamous invasion and riots on 6th January 2021, scenes that led to Donald Trump's impeachment for incitement of insurrection. The platform you at the back here is also where the President is inaugrated after each election.

The first thing that struck me about the Capitol is the sheer size of it. I've seen it in pictures and on TV and knew it was big but holey moley it's absolutely gigantic.Okumaya devam et

Union Station
19 Temmuz 2024, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
This actually wasn't on my list of things to see but I followed the street signs for about 10 minutes and wasn't disappointed! Washington's main station is spectacular with multiple levels of platforms and shops. I then headed back up towards the Capitol past a few Congressional offices.Okumaya devam et

Capitol from the Front
19 Temmuz 2024, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
When I was at the back of the Capitol building I hadn't realised it was the back, until I made it around to the actual front. It was equally as spectacular from here!

National Mall
19 Temmuz 2024, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
After the Capitol I wanted to cross the road to have a look at the National Library and Supreme Court but the police had cordoned it off for some reason so that would have to wait. Instead I moved on to head down the National Mall towards the Washington Monument (the giant obelisk). The Mall is flanked by tonnes of museums, grand buildings and the Botanical Gardens (which weren't up to much).

Looking in one direction was the Obelisk and in the other the Capitol!Okumaya devam et

Washington Monument
19 Temmuz 2024, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☁️ 27 °C
Completed in 1884 as the tallest building in the world at the time, this obelisk was built in honour of, you guessed it, George Washington, the first President of the United States.

DC is considerably more built up nowadays than when the monument was constructed but you can still see it from all around!

As I passed the monument I also got my first glimpse of the front of the White House in the distance!Okumaya devam et
