those who have not spend time in the southern Orient... (places like Osaka, Tokyo, Shenzhen or anywhere in southern Indo-china) know nothing of Humidity or heat... basically even 90F feels like 130F in those conditions... compared to them DC is cool & dry!
During the late sixties and early seventies my late wife and I lived in Alexandria, Virginia and worked within the FBI’s administrative division. Washington DC has added so much over the last 50 years. I was a tour guide for the FBI and I had the opportunity to meet so many people from around the world. I am now a retired educator. So many memories, impossible to count.
I have been twice to the top of Washington Monument , Once with my parents when we lived in DC in the late 1950s and then again with my windowed mother in the late 1980s . From the top you feel we can reach out and touch all of DC . Happy Trails Roy & Dale I mean George & Gracie I mean Joe & Nic !
Brought back so many good memories! Mother was secretary to a congressman and Daddy was assigned to the Library of Congress during WW!!. They lived in a boarding house, We would go back to visit often in the late 40\s and 50's. The owner of the boarding house always made room for us. We went back for my high school graduation trip too. All this time we kept up with the owners of the boarding house. Later, my husband was stationed in Maryland. I would still go visit the boarding house even though it had been turned into apartments. The owners were always glad to see me. I wore the wheels off of a baby stroller while we were stationed nearby. Your meals looked scrumptious! Thanks for taking us along. Nicole, I sympathize with you and the heat! Take care.
Hello Joe and Nic. This video got my attention today. My one trip to D.C. was in 1993. A brother-in-law was living in Alexandria, VA. Because of his location and no hotel expense there, we were tourists for nine days. There was still so much more to see. Last September I returned to Amarillo to participate in my fifty year high school reunion. In March, I remarried. First marriage lasted 26 years and ended in 2001. The recent marriage was to my partner for the last six years. On our wedding day, I was 68, he was 40. Yesterday I watched an Amarillo video about Wonderland. We lived very close. A highlight, they filmed a short segment from a drone, and it flew high enough for me to spot my mother’s home. For that day, it is one of those things that make me happy.
I went in the summer of 1977, so I was 9 years old. It was during a heat wave of course, but I enjoyed it. We went to the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum, the Natural History Museum, inside the Capitol, the Pentagon, most of the monuments. My favorite was actually the Jefferson Memorial. It was late afternoon:early evening, and the Marine Corps band was playing by the Potomac. I wandered off, found a side path that led to an elevator, and took it and discovered a souvenir shop in the Jefferson Memorial. Many people over the years thought I was mistaken and that the gift shop was somewhere else, but while playing Fallout 3 some 32 years later, near the ending, I found myself at the gift shop in the Memorial and knew I was right. Virginia was awesome too. Mount Vernon was really nice. So much to see and do.
Great work, Joe. This is definitely the most impressive tour of our capital that I've experienced. The videography, narration, points of interest, and duration were all excellent. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Joe really enjoyed the video. I'm from the UK and have visited DC 3 times. You should have visited the Korean & Vietnam memorials . The Vietnam one as the name of every American killed or missing engraved it looks awesome at night with candles burning. What I liked was all the Museums are free including the Zoo.
Thanks a tonne Joe showing Washington DC - most important monuments. Sitting this side of the globe could watch in detail with stats. Really delighted.
Greetings from Australia. I've seen all the monuments on television but didn't realise they were all within walking distance.This video makes a nice perspective of the area just a visitor would.
Went there on the High School graduation trip and enjoyed every minute, The National Treasury and the Smithsonian Museums were remarkable, I was hoping Nicole could get her passport stamped there. Thanks for letting us see Washington 2024, Travel safely
Great video! I have been there lots of times, so much history and so many things to do and see, love it❤. I wish every citizen had the opportunity to visit there. Nicole, I’m with you girl, hate the heat and especially walking everywhere in it, nope. It’s just as nice in the fall when it’s cooler and lots less humidity
Joe and Nic, you two are all over our beautiful country and I am all over your channel.............thanks for your hard work putting this channel together................ Jeff Thompson Rockford Illinois
We visited DC when we were kids. It was my mom’s 40th b’day (1965). Mom wanted to walk down to show she still had some youth left. We walked down that hot, humid July day! Been back many times since and I sure miss her!
This is the first summer I have seen the grass brown and the reflection pool green. It's a beautiful city, to bad it's so corrupt. Your meal looked delicious. Thank you. ❤
Another great video. You hit all the high points of the DC tourist sites. Too bad you didn't get to see the Zoo. The National Aquarium is in Baltimore so you still have a chance on that one. Also there is Fort Mc Henry in Baltimore (National Anthem poem Francis Scott Key) however it is in a pretty tough neighborhood. The tunnels under the bay are pricey and now that the Francis Scott Key Bridge has fallen down traffic in the area is more sporty. Nothing like DC & Baltimore traffic to raise your blood pressure. The food again looked great. It is a lot of walking in DC but it is the best way to see it all. If you can get some Maryland Crab Cakes you need to do that for us foodies. Thanks again for the video. I felt like I was walking with you and I reignited my memories of the same walk. Again a good video and the crowds are huge and the prices are very tourist oriented. Looking forward to Annapolis. You are in my pre Texas stomping grounds right now.
Hope you had soft shoes for that's a lot of walking. You sure did have ice cream on your hands when you washed it no joke your hands were sticky. Thank you Joe and Nic for the wonderful trip.❤
So next to the capitol you should have gone to loc or library of congress. It is an open public building. It’s really nice inside. That building is made of pretty much marble and is gorgeous. The first building in the video was usda and there is a parking lot right next to it behind the building. Dc blocks in that area aren’t your typical sized blocks.
Was in DC, May 8th 1945, almost 5 years old. Still remember the celebrations for VE Day. (Victory in Europe). An Army Major, put me on his shoulders and we walked around.
Very much looking forward to your Maryland video. Wife and I grew up in Houston, but moved up here when I joined the US Marine Band. Have lived here since 1991. I guess we're Merliners now, but always Texans at heart. Hope you enjoy Annapolis. It's a lovely town with a quaint downtown.
My late sister was born at Walter Reed hospital, 1954. Mom followed her husband as an army wife, from California to D.C. and Maryland. I'm thinking that her living in the D.C. area back in the 1950's, may have been where she found out about putting oysters in our Thanksgiving stuffing every year after.
looking forward to Annapolis. i just visited that capitol for the first time in September. I've been to a little over half of the state capitols and it is absolutely among my favorites so far.
Great tour guys thanks. I had family in northern Virginia and when I visited as a teenager they tool me several times to see everything there. Course I have been back a few times to visit the veterans memorials. Everyone should get the chance to see these great monuments and the various buildings of our government. It’s a beautiful city. I will say this and no more if the people we send there were as great as the places they work we would really have something especially since they can look out their windows and see the great memories that are standing for this great country. Great video, commentary and stats. Thanks. Safe travels my friend. Keep filming I’ll keep watching
I played many an event at the White House with the US Marine Band...both inside and outside. Also played many an outdoor concert at the Capitol and Washington Monument.
DC has some of the best restaurants Ive ever been in, The Barbecue Restaurant is incredible , there is an Italian restaurant in a residential area that is incredible. all the Pizza ingredients come from Italy even the Dough, Its a Pizza I guarantee know body has ever tasted anything like it. by the way the subways are clean and very nice
What a great video this was. Your Rib-eye steak meal looked fantastic !! You only live once ...... I'm sure you will remember that meal much longer than you would miss the money.
I hope y'all had plenty of water and sunscreen. Also, Nicole, please invest in some decent cushion-y footwear for walking around in. Your feet...and back, will thank you! It may not make a fashion statement but your comfort will improve significantly. It is also good you were in DC when you were because this week would have been impossible to get around with the EU summit in town.
Sorry you guys couldn't get tickets to go inside the monument 🗽 but at least ya'll two made, though. Beautiful moments ✨️ indeed, Joey . Ice cream ice cream 🍦 😋 we all scream 😱 for 🧊 cream 😋 😜. Gladly seeing 👀 you two young people's had 😁 fun. The food was totally delicious 😋
This is an awesome vid with so much I myself would love to visit. Maybe some day. Being a Canadian we were proud of having the CN Tower being our landmark of the tallest structure on earth. 553,33 meters. It's twice as tall as the Eiffel Tower and 3 times taller than the Washington Monument. We're beat now by a building in Dubai. lol. Thank you so much for taking us along with you on your journey through your life, Joe and Nicole. God Bless.
Very nice video! I have never been to DC! I’ve heard it gets really hot there is in summer which you confirmed! Great sights and architecture. Your food looked delicious! Looking forward to MD!
My wife and I visited DC last week. We went to the national Zoo and to Arlington Nat. cemetary to visit my mother and fathers grave. DC has so much to see we will return now that we have a friend who lives in Va. who retired out of the pentagon. The metro is very handy.
My husband and I have been to WDC twice and didn't make it to the capitol building either time. It was just too hot and too far to walk. We went into several Smithsonian buildings to cool off instead. You could spend a week in DC and not see everything.
Ty guys 4 another great tour. Sorry Nicole u were over heated but ur dress is beautiful. I don't like heat either. D.C. isn't far 4 me. Omgosh the food looked fabulous! B safe guys
I visited there when I was a kid, my parents took me there for vacation. I had a picture with the Lincoln Memoral. On that note I have spent 20 years in the Navy, my shifts were from 7 pm till 7 am. Did three wars. Now a days this country is so messed up it's SAD. Thanks for the video and NO CATs found. Say Hi to Nicky for me Please
I always tell you that I love your content. Love your channel and I'll just continuously tell you how much I love what you put in your videos! Think I've been subscribed now for a year already but I've already caught up on all your videos so now I'm just sitting back waiting for more.
I'm with Nic on the heat thing. I seldom go out side in extreme heat for more than 20 minutes or so, pasty white non browning skin. Cannot handle humidity either.
1879 was 100 years. Before my father quit drinking. Highly copious amounts of whiskey. And sought a 12 step recovery group. And is now 100% sober 45 years.
I thought the civil war had something to do with halting the completion of the monument? Awesome thanks liked the tour of DC Nic looks good with the flower in her hair and still cracks me up 😂 she funny 🤣 Joe U could have washed up in the reflection pond 😅. ❤😊
@@LyleFrancisDelp A little bit of both, from the National Park Service: Congressional attempts to support the Washington National Monument Society failed as attention turned toward the sectional crisis and then the Civil War. Only as the nation was rebuilding did attention again turn toward honoring the man who had once united the states for a common purpose.
My high school band (Memorial, Houston TX) marched down Pennsylvania Ave. For Nixons 2nd inauguration in 1972. Loved everything about the city - all the monuments. Fortunately it was January so there was no heat or humidity.
Good morning Joe,nic 😊 i’ve learned a lot from watching this video. Thank you Joe. Beautiful. Wow joe.nic is younger than you oh not too much though I’m sure you guys are cute together😊 yummy ice cream cone
Brings back memories of wasted years (1992 - 2009) of living in the DC-Northern VA area. I wish someone had shaken me and said, "You need to move outta here!", so I could've avoided the pollution, crowds, noise, Metro trips and sky high costs! Austin has been so much better to me.
I have a love/hate relationship with DC. I grew up in the metro area about 15 miles from the City limits and it was really nice. I do plan on going back one day to visit the WW2 memorial which was completed right around the time I moved away from the area.
Thank you for the tour of the capital city of the USA. It's unfortunate that you couldn't enter the Washington Monument and ascend to the top to view the surrounding city.
My dad and I moved a clients daughter there to start Georgetown about 10 or 15 years ago. Afterward, we were driving around the city in a box truck, asking for directions to all of the monuments, and the white house. Probably not the best idea we could've come up with. I was surprised at how dirty it was, and how many homless we saw, not sure about now, but it was rough then. And the reflection pool was filthy, there were chunks of concrete with re-bar in it, the entire experience was enough to keep me from wanting to return on my own time.
Two things will never change about DC in the summer: HEAT and HUMIDITY!
The politics WILL change though ! For the better might I add ! 🇺🇸
those who have not spend time in the southern Orient... (places like Osaka, Tokyo, Shenzhen or anywhere in southern Indo-china) know nothing of Humidity or heat... basically even 90F feels like 130F in those conditions... compared to them DC is cool & dry!
@@nancyparker9986 You think so? I don't. Politics is getting worse, no signs of it getting better. I could state why, but it's best I don't go there.
@@glennbourque111 lots of good things being done behind the scenes…..not reveled to the public yet
And crime and general degredation. A pustule on the face of America.
Thank you so much for taking us to places that a lot of us would never be able to go to in person!
I second that 😊
Yes Joe you have saved me a shitload of money! Not to mention your $200 meals 😮 23:20 23:20 s😮😮
You have been growing dear to my heart, both of you! Don't stop showing me/us around!
Awesome, thank you!

Excellent!
Sunday was definitely hot. I played an outdoor concert out in Washington, VA Saturday.
Old Ebbets Grille is a must visit when you are in DC.
Thanks so much for all the wonderful view of sites in DC! ...you brought them to live.."thanks Joe, best to you an Nicole ,safe journeys 🌼
Thank you, Jenny!

Great tour! Thank you for dragging us all along. We're like mooching family Lol
Thanks for taking us on the tour! Now I don’t have to go! 😊😊😊
Thank you Joe & Nic, for taking us along! I have never been to D.C. but it's on my bucket list. And so is NYC, never been there either!
555 feet 5 and ⅕ inch to be precise 😉. I did the trip to the top in 1973.
Amazing it should have been 666ft!!!! Nothing more Masonic than Washington!
Lovely video Nic must were proper walking shoes with the long walks.Have watch all the vids since you began /🎉🎉😊
Thank you, John!
There 2 times but a long time ago. This is wonderful. Thank you.

@@nana2jjhwa Thanks, I’ll tell her! 😀
Really enjoyed this. The price of your meal.....wow!
I was in DC in July 1963. Never will forget it, including the hot weather!

We plan on a couple more DC videos. We just wanted to hit the main touristy areas in this one. There's too much of DC to see for one video.
Hope you had soft shoes for that's a lot of walking. You sure did have ice cream on your hands when you washed it no joke your hands were sticky. Thank you Joe and Nic for the wonderful trip.❤
Thank you!
I am always amazed with the memorials in DC. To bad there is so much controversary going on within.

Annapolis is absolutely beautiful. I was really impressed.
Only thing I miss about Maryland is the trees and the crushing summer heat and humidity (hey, it feels like home to me).
My late sister was born at Walter Reed hospital, 1954. Mom followed her husband as an army wife, from California to D.C. and Maryland. I'm thinking that her living in the D.C. area back in the 1950's, may have been where she found out about putting oysters in our Thanksgiving stuffing every year after.
Thank's Joe and Nicole, great docu again.
Always take at least a week to visit DC. Usually off season. There is a revolving restaurant down by the Jefferson Memorial.😊
looking forward to Annapolis. i just visited that capitol for the first time in September. I've been to a little over half of the state capitols and it is absolutely among my favorites so far.
Great video both. Still plan on doing that Q&A some time in the near future?
We need to do one, I know. Gonna work on that. I've got a big 3 year retrospective video planned for this fall - we'll plan on the Q&A after that.
Thank you Joe. I have 3 trips to Europe and S America this next year … hoping to get to DC sometime soon.
That looks like one of the nicest meals I have seen on your channel.
Great tour guys thanks. I had family in northern Virginia and when I visited as a teenager they tool me several times to see everything there.

Totally agree with everything you say.

DC has some of the best restaurants Ive ever been in, The Barbecue Restaurant is incredible , there is an Italian restaurant in a residential area that is incredible. all the Pizza ingredients come from Italy even the Dough, Its a Pizza I guarantee know body has ever tasted anything like it. by the way the subways are clean and very nice
Washington is considered to be a great restaurant city.
Washington DC is always cool to visit. Great video.
The last time I actually toured DC was in high school lol. It's been quite a while.
Thanks for the tour, the food looked delicious 😋
I’m a new subscriber, just wanted to say thank you for this wonderful travel channel. It’s so wholesome and inspiring. I’m obsessed ❤😂
Wow, thank you!! 👍😀
What a great video this was. Your Rib-eye steak meal looked fantastic !! You only live once ...... I'm sure you will remember that meal much longer than you would miss the money.
I worked in DC for 30 years. I could not wait to leave there. Miserable place and the traffic is an absolute nightmare. Love your videos.
Get that gal some walkin' shoes! (I kinda chuckled when I saw her clompin' around in those fancy kicks she was wearin'... SORRY Nic!)
lol. Indeed a beautiful lady.
I lived there in the 80's, GWU! Nice to see the new additions.
Nicole is a true trooper! I hate the heat as well! Thanks you two for your travels!
I hope y'all had plenty of water and sunscreen. Also, Nicole, please invest in some decent cushion-y footwear for walking around in. Your feet...and back, will thank you! It may not make a fashion statement but your comfort will improve significantly. It is also good you were in DC when you were because this week would have been impossible to get around with the EU summit in town.
We got out just in time! :)
If you're on the local roads in Annapolis be careful because I might be there. lol
You should visit the museums, you're already there!!!!
We will on a future trip, most likely this fall.
Sorry you guys couldn't get tickets to go inside the monument 🗽 but at least ya'll two made, though. Beautiful moments ✨️ indeed, Joey . Ice cream ice cream 🍦 😋 we all scream 😱 for 🧊 cream 😋 😜. Gladly seeing 👀 you two young people's had 😁 fun. The food was totally delicious 😋
It was. :)
Enjoy!!!! Such a beautiful city ❤❤❤

Joe get Nicole some comfortable walking shoes..!!
I have! She won't wear them!
I have been there, but it is nice to see it again.
Old Ebbitt and Ben's Chili Bowl, some say historical landmarks. Welcome to DC. Many places to have fun. Sorry we in humid heat mode.

I live in DC and am working toward always leaving DC for the summer. Spring and fall here are great, but summer humidity is just too much
I'm with Nic on the heat thing. I seldom go out side in extreme heat for more than 20 minutes or so, pasty white non browning skin. Cannot handle humidity either.

You should drive to Bel Air Md. on the way to Philadelphia and visit the home of John Wilkes Booth at Tudor Hall.
That was a fancy dinner😊
I thought the civil war had something to do with halting the completion of the monument? Awesome thanks liked the tour of DC Nic looks good with the flower in her hair and still cracks me up 😂 she funny 🤣 Joe U could have washed up in the reflection pond 😅. ❤😊
No. It was a money problem.

Congressional attempts to support the Washington National Monument Society failed as attention turned toward the sectional crisis and then the Civil War. Only as the nation was rebuilding did attention again turn toward honoring the man who had once united the states for a common purpose.
@@GarrettWorcester Thank you public school did me a bit of good.👍🇺🇸
Holy….. $200 for dinner? OMG
Thank you for the tour. I’ve been around DC many many times but I’ve never been there like y’all did! Thanks
My high school band (Memorial, Houston TX) marched down Pennsylvania Ave. For Nixons 2nd inauguration in 1972. Loved everything about the city - all the monuments. Fortunately it was January so there was no heat or humidity.
Good morning Joe,nic 😊 i’ve learned a lot from watching this video. Thank you Joe. Beautiful. Wow joe.nic is younger than you oh not too much though I’m sure you guys are cute together😊 yummy ice cream cone
Thanks, Nancy!
Brings back memories of wasted years (1992 - 2009) of living in the DC-Northern VA area. I wish someone had shaken me and said, "You need to move outta here!", so I could've avoided the pollution, crowds, noise, Metro trips and sky high costs! Austin has been so much better to me.
I have a love/hate relationship with DC. I grew up in the metro area about 15 miles from the City limits and it was really nice. I do plan on going back one day to visit the WW2 memorial which was completed right around the time I moved away from the area.
Thank you for the tour of the capital city of the USA. It's unfortunate that you couldn't enter the Washington Monument and ascend to the top to view the surrounding city.
Bush Jr. went AWOL from The Texas Air National Guard.
Thanks,Joe and Nicola. Enjoyed video.
You'll never see monuments and buildings like those, erected again in the US. I appreciate them every time I see them.
So many great things to see in DC. I particulary like the Korean war memorial.
That riibeye looked like it was worth every penny!
It was excellent!
Thank you, another great video, Hot on the West Coast this week Wow food was not cheap, looking forward to Maryland
My dad and I moved a clients daughter there to start Georgetown about 10 or 15 years ago.
Afterward, we were driving around the city in a box truck, asking for directions to all of the monuments, and the white house. Probably not the best idea we could've come up with.
I was surprised at how dirty it was, and how many homless we saw, not sure about now, but it was rough then. And the reflection pool was filthy, there were chunks of concrete with re-bar in it, the entire experience was enough to keep me from wanting to return on my own time.
WASHINGTON D.C WOW...THANKS JOE AND NIC ❤
