He is an American expat who spent the last decade in Hong Kong with his family and is now back in Washington DC, continuing his daily ritual of taking very long hikes around the city catching the sights and sounds of the city while live streaming to share with others. History, culture, life as an expat (with reverse culture shock), and the pitiful Chinese food in Washington DC are regular topics of discussion.

    Surprised the homeless, didn't start living in Rock Creek .
    Remember seeing the Watergate Hotel back in 1977 .
    10:30 Farther up ( Second Bridge ) the 14th street bridge , where the Air Florida Flight 90,
    crashed into it back in 1982 ? *How deep is the reflecting pool* ???

    Speaking of spiderwebs in the afternoon on the trails here that should not be there, this could be the "newly" arrived Joro spider spinning its massive webs on the bike trails for there are alleged reports of the Joro Spider and their massive webs in Maryland around DC area.

    Ever think about using a GPS app like Map My Ride or something to create a map of the route you biked for these videos that could be shared in the comments? I'd be interested in the various bike routes / shortcuts you use around the city.

    I've been anxiously awaiting your video, P6. I watched the Rock Creek Park accident scene w the helicopter landing. I was hoping you would get a closer look. Thank you.
    The baby ducks using the ramps are adorable. Horses twice in 1 wk.
    I heard they are going to try to get the Dola back to port.
    Thanks for the *cool* bike ride through the park.
    See you tomorrow.

      Did they change her nick name? Growing up in that time period, I always remembered it being Lady Bird Johnson. It was a nick given to her by POTUS Johnson before they were married. She did do much to beatify the US Highway system with wildflowers and trees, I believe.

    Homelessness here in the USA is the fault of many lawmakers in power who neglect to get to root causes of homelessness such as a lack of affordable housing putting bandaids on problem by shifting homeless around, the EVIL acts of criminalizing homelessness in some placess, only having temporary shelters for homeless and the enabling of greedy landlords price gouging rents. There are even people with full time jobs that are homeless. Just one of the reasons why I am ashamed of the USA of 2024 as rest of developed world takes MUCH better care of its citizens and residents through stronger social safety nets, universal singlepayer healthcare and so on.

      Obama was born in Hawaii. Since his father was Kenyan, maybe he would be interested. Or maybe not. My niece married a man who was raised in Kenya. My sister has a village computer learning center named after her in Kenya. But they won't be at the dinner.
