Thoughts from Washington DC:
1. I find it a bit disconcerting that I know my way around the Mall from Playing Fallout 3
2. The Subway stations are also very accurate in the game
3. It is effing Hot
4. Walking along one gets a sens for the sheer history of the place; I really need to come back when there is time to look around at length
5. The Sushi in Arlington is par at best
