What is your favorite spot in DC and what do you do there?
My favorite spot in DC is a spot on the National Mall (about 50 meters from the Washington Monument), smack-dab in the middle of the Washington Monument, The Lincoln Memorial, The White House, and The Jefferson Memorial – a great spot to have a picnic or do yoga!

Mine Vaganti (Loose Cannons) is a great Italian romantic comedy.

I think the White House would look nice if the columns stayed white and the walls were painted teal.
