Expedition to the Bier Baron, Washington D.C
On our final night in Washington,
I managed to track down what could be a real ale pub. We had quite a nice walk reaching the place. First, we headed
over to Dupont Circle to see the fountain, which was more of a hang-out point
for students. Then we headed over to the Spanish Steps, but unfortunately the
fountain wasn’t running so it was nowhere near as impressive as the Italian
one. After that we passed many embassies, though we were still a fair few miles
away from our own. What we were most impressed with were the number of monuments
that each embassy had chosen to display outside of their buildings. There was a
large Ganesh from India and at its base was a child statue of former President
Obama reading from a book with his peers. A few locals saw us admiring the
statues and were kind enough to point this fact out.
