Well, The house doesnt look as big as in movies, but is white for sure. And what happened to the National Christmas tree?!

Hmm, Biely dom nieje vôbec taký veľký ako vyzerá vo filmoch, ale je biely. A čo sa stalo Národnému Vianičnému stromčeku?Read more

Here I have to admit, that this was the first ticket machine ever that made me ask for help. :D
Harry Weese Associates were playing with the new strategies for stations to make them look spacious and not depresive. The results of their 1967 design you can see yourself..
***
Musím sa priznať, že toto bol prvý automat na lístky na svete ktorý ma donútil poprosiť niekoho o pomoc. :D
S návrhom novej stratégie pre stanice metra, aby vyzerali priestranne a nie depresívne, bol poverený Harry Weese Associates. Výsledok dizajnu z 1967meho môžete vidiet sami..Read more

Well, thanks to Sofie I know that JFK proposed to Jackie. In booth 3. Out of the fact that it is the oldest family owned tavern in Washington, we ate there..
The tavern has hosted also each U.S. President from Harry S. Truman to George W. Bush.
And my red snapper was delicious, by the way.
***
Vďaka Sofie viem, že JFK požiadal o ruku Jackie v boxe č.3. Mimo toho, že je to najstaršia reštaurácia vlastnená jednou rodinou vo Washingtone, my sme tu večerali.
Taverna hostila okrem nás aj všetkých Amerických prezidentov od Harryho S. Trumana po Georga W. Busha.
A mimochodom, moja ryba chutila výborne.Read more

Visiting George Washington.
Built in 1759 on 200ha, the house of George Washington is standing with a great view on hill, overlooking the plantation, gardens and lake around.
And a special toilet booth at the edge of garden, where one can share a moment and chat with 2other friends at the same time..
***
Na návšteve u Georga Washingtona.
Dom Georga Washingtona a jeho rodiny bol postavený v 1759tom, umiestnený na 200ha pozemku. Nájdu sa ru plantáže, záhrady a neskutočný výhľad na jazero.
A aj záchodová búdka na hranici záhrady kde si človek môže vychutnať posedenie a rozhovir s 2mi priateľmi naraz..Read more

In 1920s Shaw's U Street has been a vibrant center of African Americans. Full of jazz, meeting points, theaters and other establishments. The city part lost a bit if its glamour due to desegregation taking the customers to other chick parts of the city. Today it seems to me that the district has a lot to offer and the atmosphere is not gone. (for sure not in the evenings)
***
V 20tych rokoch U Ulica v časti Shaw bola aktívne Afroamerické centrum plné jazzu, divadiel, rôznych obchodov a iných. Táto štvrť stratila trochu svoje čaro po desegregácií, keď zákazníkov priťahovali viac iné štvrte (predtým nepovolené). Dnes má podľa mňa táto štvrť čo ponúknuť a určite jej nechýba atmosféra.(určite nie počas večerov)Read more
