Was showing a young student around DC. Disappointed to find that you can't get anywhere near the Whitehouse with all the blockades, phalanxes of armed forces and impenetrable gates.
Walked down to the Washington Monument and found this delightful rainbow butterfly of freedom.

@JKrotkov@mastodon.social I had some Iraqi Meteorologists we were training a few years back and I took them out on a bit of a walk through the capitol park in Sacramento. We just headed across the lawn and the bunch of us walked into the Capitol Building and up to the (closed) governor's door. They were astounded. Ha ha ha, I secretly thought. Try that in your country! I wonder if I can still do that in my country.
