Overall

Me and my family came to Washington D.C for a vacation and we got lost almost the whole way around D.C. It was several pedestrians j-walking, police sirens, traffic, and blowing horns. The worst thing about D.C was there was harldy NO parking lots. It surprised me that everyone in D.C didn't have a parking ticket. You could hardly drive because there were cars parked on the side of the road, and when you did find a parking garage you had to park in a specific place, the roof was small, and you had to walk down steps to get where you were going. Almost ALL of the parking spaces were reserved. The national Zoo was fun but Norfolk Zoo in Virginia was way better. The best thing about D.C was the buildings. Oh yeah did I mention that the stop lights are on the side and hard to see? We ran a red light a couple few times!!! D.C didn't seem like a country's capital, it was crowded. I never knew how much I loved Newport News, Virginia!!!
