From my trip in Washington Dc

I was in Washington Dc for the 4th of July. I loved it. The capitol had changed a lot from the last time I've been there. I can without doubt say that the recession had something to do with that. I checked the unemployment rate and the rate of HIV/Aids. I was surprised to see that the AIDS rate in DC is higher than the rate in West Africa.
The people were kind of nice, the white house was full has usual but other kind of tourists I can say. May be due to who is occupying the White House now, may be not.
I really don't look at Dc anymore as a "Buy" but as a "Hold".
