    Didn't know Persian food was so good...the details of how he cooked the food and his enthusiasm makes you want to visit his restaurant. The only thing I would suggest is a slice of avocado 🥑 with the white rice 🍚 as an added kick! Looking forward to seeing the aerospace museum...since my favorite government agency has always been NASA...

I currently work in the wharf area. You mentioned one area that I didn't know, the Gravely point. I will surely visit that.

    Hi Robert 🤗 great footage of DC. I went to DC with my family as a kid when Nixon was President-remember it well. My most vivid memory is of the Tomb of the unknown soldier and the changing of the guard there. And Arlington cemetery where so many patriots are buried. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Thanks for sharing ❤️

    Wow, you visited the WHARF! My husband designed most of the wayfinding and signage and points of interest in that area. He's currently working on phase 2 of the project. It was cool to see some of his work premier on your video (such as the cute little smores truck and the Anthem theater).

    Another wonderful video Robert! Wonderful comment starting at 36:22, "I really like Washington DC, I like what it symbolizes ... ." In the midst of partisanship it's hard to always remember what our form of government has achieved. Maybe it takes someone with your background, who choose to live here, to remind us of this. Thanks so much!

    Sunday morning, it's time for coffee and the latest TR episode! I first visited Washington in 1966--things have sure changed since then! The thing that wowed me the most was the giant elephant in the rotunda of the Natural History Museum. The next time you're in the area you should definitely try to see the Udvar-Hazy Center--one of the most impressive collections of aircraft ever. Hey, by any chance did you run into Mary Hill while you were staying at Cherry Hill Park? (Billy Joe Royal song reference) Until next week, happy trails!

    As I am watching you drive through DC, I am remembering going there in the Summer of 2002. That traffic was so nerve racking, blue knuckle driving. I parked in a shopping mall garage, and took the DC Metro around, and including the Pentagon. They were repairing the sight of 9/11 and working on another side of the building as well.
    I see in your video that the Capitol building is being worked on. I walked around in the Capitol area, and the White House. I would love to visit again with my sister, niece and her two daughters. Maybe next summer, as they are already back in school.
    I do love DC, there are so many neat places to see. Been there twice while I was residing in Northern Kentucky and drove the first time and a passenger the 2nd time with two other ladies.
    I want to stop by and say hi to Joe and Dr. Jill Biden. He sure has been keeping busy, getting all those bills passed. I believe those fences are taller and for good reason.
    I haven't seen that wharf area, that is neat.

    I bet the President was in one of those three helicopters flying over the Potomac that you captured. They fly three at once for security reasons so no one can actually tell which one he is in. I grew up in DC, worked there over 25 years, living now for years in Arlington, VA and they fly over my home frequently. Sometimes I have to duck because it sounds like they are coming through the window the sound is so loud.
