Continuation of Washington DC activities
September 25, 2014 Thursday

After we visited the office of US House Speaker John Boehner, his staff Andrew Tinder gave us a tour of this humongous building.
Andrew said the Statue of Liberty could fit in here.

Very large murals mostly done by artist John Trumbull, adorn the circular hall. This one depicts the landing of Christopher Columbus.

There are a hundred statues spread all over.

Andrew kept on moving from one statue to another eh ang layu-layo. Nakakapagod.

All statues here are fully clothed, either wearing cloaks, suits, wind breakers, sobrang balot na balot. There’s nothing to look at. I like the statues at the Louvre Museum in Paris. Mas interesting duon, puro naka hubo ang estatwa. Libre hawak pa. Dito sa Capitol Hill mahigpit. Hinawakan ko lang yung bato na tinatayuan ni Ronald Reagan, bawal daw. Sa Louvre pwede ka pang maglambitin sa bird ni Adonis.
