ワシントンD.C.34歳ひとり旅🇺🇸意外と知らないアメリカの首都に行ってみた。【北米 #17】2023年10月20日〜23日

Are you all traveling? I'm Shige. America, Washington DC, a capital that you don't know much about. Let's get started. We've arrived at the Union Station in Washington DC, the capital of the United States. It's the main hall of the Union Station in Washington DC, the capital of the United States. It's magnificent. As soon as you leave the station, you can see the U.S. Federal Bureau of Statistics right in front of you. It's about a kilometer to the hotel, so I'll try my best to walk. When I got on the subway, it turned out to be early, so I'm going to take the subway. There's a ticket vending machine in the parking lot, but you can add it from the Apple Wallet, so I'll give it a try. It's a transit card. It's a smart trip. This is a Washington transportation card. You can set the amount and add it. Even if you use a wallet app, it costs $2 to buy a card at first, but you can add it safely. Let's hang it up here. Can you do it? Oh, I did it. The subway has public wi-fi, and it's very fast. Washington DC is amazing. We've arrived. We're going to the hotel on the Red Line. The subway in Washington DC is relatively clean and peaceful. Get off at Noma Gallaudet Station. The hotel is about four minutes from the station. I'll walk. This time, the hotel is Citizen M, Washington DC, Noma. I checked in. King Room. I found a cheap hotel in Washington DC and managed to stay for less than 100,000 yen for three nights. It's like the Citizen M I stayed in LA. The room is clean and modern. The toilet is also relatively shiny. The light is a little erotic. There is no bathtub and only a shower, but there is a handy and rain shower. It's not wide, but I think it's enough to stay alone. It also has a small desk. Wi-Fi high speed. Great. 2GB additional purchase because Rakuten Mobile's data is lost. The bus was late and I was late, but I'm going to have a quick dinner. I'm going to have dinner on the 90th bus that arrived. When boarding, hold up the smart trip you just put in and board. The atmosphere in the car is also peaceful. So far, there seems to be no problem riding at night. I ran and got off the bus for about 20 minutes. Is this a drinking area? It's bright with neon lights even at night. Tonight's dinner is a famous hot dog shop. Ben's Chili Bowl There are several types of hot dogs on the menu. Bowl, salad, burger, sandwich, nachos, and potato drinks. Even at this time, there are many customers and it is very lively. It is also famous that President Obama came to eat. It seems to be a super famous store where many famous people come, not just Obama. I got a hot dog of a specialty. Look at this, it's amazing! Thick sausage and salty and slightly spicy Mexican chili sauce are delicious. You're a junkie. The pink lemonade in the big cup has a very scientific taste. The specialty of this shop is Chili Cheese Fried Potatoes. Thick potatoes, spicy chili sauce, and rich cheese are mild. If you eat this every day, you will become a politician. You're a junkie. I want to drink beer! I'm so full that I'm going to collapse if I eat any more. Thank you for the meal. I'm full. It was very delicious, but it's too unhealthy to eat alone, so I'd like to share it with a few people. I'll take the 92nd bus back to the inn. I don't know why, but when I was about to hand over the card, I was told to go ahead, so I got on the bus for free. I came back to the inn by bus. I'm still shaking because my blood sugar level has exploded. So I came back to the inn safely tonight. Good morning. Yesterday, when I returned to the inn, I fell asleep before I knew it. Today, I'd like to take a tour of the American capital, Washington. I'm going to take the red line. I got off at Union Station by train. First of all, I walk to the U.S. Capitol, which is in front of me. This quiet city is like Brazil. It's like a made-up capital. There are squirrels all over the place, and they're eating the fruit that fell to the ground deliciously. The first thing I saw was the Senate. And that's the U.S. Capitol. I thought I'd go to the front, but it's barricaded, so I can't go any further. I've come all the way to the front of the U.S. Congress. I wonder if I can get close from here. This is the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center. If you make a reservation ahead of time, you can take a tour of the U.S. Congress. It seems that you can also participate on the day without a reservation, but the tour is 90 minutes long, so let's not do it this time. The tour is free, so if you have time and can speak English, you might want to join us. The building in front of me is the Supreme Court, so it's the highest court in the United States. It's huge. It says, Equal Justice Under Law. Library of Congress. I heard that the Library of Congress is also a famous facility. It's ridiculously nice. I'm hungry, so I'd like to have lunch at a place called Sweet Green. I ordered a super unhealthy hot dog and french fries yesterday, so I'll have a healthy salad today. Nice, wonderful, delicious-looking vegetables. If you eat this, you'll come back to life. I ordered Wakamore Greens, which is a popular menu, but it's a lot. It looks delicious. It's a refreshing dressing with lime and basil, with avocado and tortilla, and it tastes like Mexico. It's delicious. I also bought sparkling water with a pink grapefruit flavor with the salad. There are various types of vegetables, and they are fresh, crispy, and healthy. It's voluminous, so I'm very satisfied with one salad. Thank you for the meal. After this, I'd like to walk around White House. Unlike New York, which is very crowded, it's a very quiet city. The United States Botanic Garden is also a famous spot. Next, I came to Union Square, which is the back of the Capitol. You can take a beautiful picture of the U.S. Congress. If you want to take a picture of the U.S. Capitol, this is the best spot. As expected of Washington, D.C. It looks like they're doing a demonstration over there. But when I got closer, it looked like a demonstration by a group that supports Palestinians. There's a crosswalk with a sign that says, From Gaza to pull out your hand, and so on. It's very powerful. A great number of people have gathered to demonstrate for the Palestinian state flag. But it seems to be done peacefully. From the side, he's more amazing than I imagined. I hope the war will end as soon as possible. I don't think it's going to last long at this rate. I'm going to take a little detour. There's a White House on the right hand side of the Washington Monument in the distance. I'm going to walk over there. This area is the Smithsonian Museum area. There are many museums on both sides of this lawn. If you turn around, you'll see the Federation Congress in the background. It's a sight to see so many Palestinian trees. One of the most popular museums. The National Aerospace Museum is also the location of the Night Museum 2. This is probably the most famous National Natural History Museum of all museums. This is also the location of the Night Museum 2. If I have time tomorrow, I'd like to go inside. Now, I've finally come to the Washington Monument. It's 169 meters high. It's huge. Around the monument is surrounded by the American flag. If you make a reservation in advance, you can enter the observatory above. From the monument, you can see the Federation Congress well. I thought I could see the White House perfectly. It's hidden in the trees, so I can't see it very well. Washington is spacious, peaceful, and peaceful. This is the monument of World War II. What you see at the end of the pond is the Lincoln Memorial. There are a lot of people. Let's go tomorrow. What you see over there is the White House where President Joe Biden lives. It's a long way to go. Washington also has a lot of huge and luxurious buildings. North of the White House. I've come around to the front. Can you see this pretty close? Oh, there it is, the White House. If you look from this side, it's pretty close. You can see it pretty clearly. A White House that I've only seen on TV. If you look at it like this, it's smaller than I thought. I wonder if there's a lot of depth. All right, that's enough for today. Let's go eat dinner. Let's go drinking. It's a super famous restaurant called Old Ebit Grill. Let's go. It takes about 40 minutes by cable. If it's a bar, it's a free seat. I'm going to sit in a bar. I'll have a Washington, D.C. IPA called Azar Half. It has a citrusy aroma and a strong bitterness. As you can see, it's pretty milky and creamy. It's a good IPA. I heard Oyster is a specialty. There's a happy hour. If you come from 3 to 5, it's $15 for six. I ordered six types of Oyster, each of which is a Washington specialty. It's a light taste, but it doesn't smell at all. It's a little sweet and delicious. All of them are small, so I ate six in no time. It's light, but it doesn't smell at all. It was delicious. The second cup is also a Washington, D.C. IPA. This is a mild taste, but it has a strong taste and a slight aroma. It reminds me of the UK. I got a Washington specialty, a crab cake. The crab smells good and looks delicious. The crab cake is made by hardening the crab meat like a hamburger. It's pretty fluffy. It's delicious. It's amazing. It's full of crab meat and it's almost like eating crab. The crab smells great. It's delicious. It's a small amount, but I'm glad it has coleslaw. It's a silky sweet and crispy coleslaw. There's a lot of fried potatoes. It's crispy on the outside and a little thick. It's a little sour and a little sweet. It's a sin to have tartar sauce on it. The third cup is a Port City with Beer from Virginia. It's a little light and a little sour. To be honest, it doesn't taste good. It's good. Thank you very much. I was able to finish the plate at the speed of God. Thank you for the meal. The clerk was very bright and kind. The woman next to me was also friendly and had a lot of fun. Thank you for the meal. But America is scary. When I realized it, the bill was 15,000 yen. I'm going to take the subway from the Metro Center Station and go back to the inn. I got off at Noma Blah Blah Station, which is next to the inn. So I came back to the inn safely tonight. I'm going to visit the museum tomorrow. Good night. Good morning. I'm hungry, so I'm going to have lunch first. As usual, I'm going to take the red line on the Metro. I got off at Faroutnose Station. I wonder if the buildings in Washington are limited in height. They're all about the same height. Downtown on a Sunday is very quiet and calm. Founding Farmers. I came here because it was a very popular store with about 15,000 reviews on Google Maps. It looks like a lot of people are waiting. It looked like a big pine tree when I was sitting at the table, but I was able to sit down because there was a bar counter. It's a very busy and crowded store. It's lunchtime, so I'm going to have a drink at Founding Farmers Friendship Blend. It says medium roast, but it's delicious with a mild taste. Waffle & Chicken, which is a specialty of this store. It's past 1 o'clock, but the breakfast menu is still open, so I'll order from the breakfast menu. The meat juice is very juicy, but the seasoning is surprisingly light. It's delicious. The waffles are fluffy and light, contrary to their appearance. It's sweet and salty when you eat it with a lot of maple syrup. If you order it as a breakfast menu, you'll get scrambled eggs on the side. This is a cream stew-like sauce. I don't know how to use it. This alone is too unhealthy, so I ordered a mini salad that wasn't on the menu. I'm excited to see how much this will cost. It was a common amount even though it was in the United States. Thank you for the meal. A mysterious wellness charge was taken 5% in advance, so the chip is 15% off. It's past 2 o'clock, but there are still a lot of people waiting. Well, I couldn't go yesterday. This area is a famous George Washington University. I walked for about 20 minutes and came to the Lincoln Memorial. It was built in commemoration of the 16th President Abraham Lincoln. It is used for various speeches, and King's I Have a Dream is also the stage. This is the 16th President Abraham Lincoln. If you go straight in front of you, you can see the Washington Monument. There are a lot of foreign monuments around here, so I'd like to go around some of them. The next thing I did was Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial. Yes, it's a commemoration of that famous King's I Have a Dream. It seems that many words of King's I Have a Dream, which carried out the civil rights movement of African Americans, are engraved on the wall. In front of King's I Have a Dream, there is a large pond called Tidal Basin. There was also a Franklin Roosevelt Memorial here. The 32nd President Franklin Roosevelt, who was the president at the time of World War II with the New Deal policy. A stone tower sent from the mayor of Yokohama in a place like this. There are a lot of cherry blossoms in Tidal Basin, and they say that you can see the cherry blossoms in spring. It says Yoshino here. Is it a tree named Yoshino? In front of you is the Potomac River. It is said that the coast is Virginia. The next thing I did was the Thomas Jefferson Memorial. It is said that he was one of the competitors for the United States Declaration of Independence as the third president. In the dome-shaped memorial, there is a statue of the great President Thomas Jefferson. This is the International Spy Museum, which I am secretly interested in. How much does the museum tell you about spies? I'm back in the Smithsonian Museum area. The Smithsonian Museum of Natural History, which I couldn't enter yesterday, is free, so I'll go in quickly. The famous Tyrannosaurus fossil was wonderful. All of this is free. It's amazing. Finally, let's take a look at the Aerospace Museum. I thought, but I need a ticket, and I don't have any more for today. It seems that the ticket is distributed from 8 am every morning. I can't help it, so I'll stop touring today and go to a chocolate cafe. I don't think Washington is America. It's a beautiful and well-organized city. China is everywhere in the world. It seems that tomorrow's flight was cancelled in a hurry, so I will work again at Capital One Cafe. I ordered an iced americano, and it was over 1,000 yen. I'll have it. The wi-fi is also connected in the spacious shop, so it's a good environment to work. The capital, Washington, is home to embassies from all over the world. It seems that you can enjoy multi-national cuisine. So, tonight, I'm going to a popular Mediterranean restaurant, Zaiti. The entrance was so crowded that I didn't know why, so I'll come back after a little time. I'll spend a little time at this Dolce Sala. I'll have a vanilla bean with espresso on a small affogato. The bitterness of the espresso and the sweetness of the vanilla are the best. It's 8 o'clock, so I'm back at the Mediterranean restaurant, but it's still crowded in the store. The table seats are crowded, but if it's a bar, I'll sit down. It's a Mediterranean dish, so I'll have a glass of Spanish sparkling water. It's a sweet and easy-to-drink sparkling water. It's delicious. A large amount of bread has been brought in. It's a strange bread. The bread inside is hollow, thin, simple bread. It's like a pita bread. First of all, I ordered a classic Greek chicken soup. The chicken and vegetable soup has a strong lemon flavor, and it's delicious. The ingredients include a lot of vegetables and chicken like Komatsuna. If you break down the poached egg, which was added for $1, it's half-boiled. Octopus Santorini with Santorini, the main dish. The octopus is crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. It's very soft. If you eat it with the sour puree sauce, you can taste the wine. It was written a lot in the comments, but each portion is very small for America. It's a restaurant where you can eat all kinds of food. It's been a long time since I had a healthy dinner. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal. The atmosphere was good, the taste was good, and I was convinced that it was a popular store. Right in front of the store, you can take the subway from Gallery PL Chinatown Station. Every subway station in Washington has the same design. Everyone loves to ride the Red Line and go back to the inn. Arrived at Noma Blah Blah station near the inn. So I came back to the inn safely tonight. I'm flying to Miami tomorrow. Good night. Good morning. I checked out of the inn. Before heading to the airport, I'm going to eat salad at Salad Works. It's spacious and modern. When I ordered a salad called Farmer's Market, it came in an incredible amount. There are various types of fresh vegetables. This is about 2,000 yen. They give me one free bread, so the amount is enough. I'm so happy to eat salad in America. Thank you for the meal. There are several airports in Washington, but this time I'm going to Ronald Reagan Washington Airport. From Gallery PL Chinatown Station, I will change to the Yellow Line and head to the airport. Arrived at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. This time, the American Airlines is the second terminal. Security is pretty crowded. After completing the security check, I arrived at the restricted area. I ordered a medium-sized iced coffee, but what is this size? This time, I'm going to Miami for American Airlines. Familiar three-row seats. It's not LCC, so there's a little room. After 3 hours and 45 minutes, I left Washington. Bye-bye, Washington. I got an on-board service cookie and orange juice. Now I can see Miami. Landed safely at Miami International Airport. Arrived safely at Miami International Airport. That's it for this time. I'm looking forward to the next Miami episode.
