We arrived in a car to Washington, ordered a hotel in the city center. A classic black guy.
We ask, “How much does the parking cost for one night?”
“Five hundred dollars, sir.” He responds educated.
“What a lot!”
“Washington is the capital of the United States!” I proudly proclaimed the gate.
I was surprised, “What, seriously?”
“Yes man. Washington is the capital of the United States, Maine! Confirmed by the guy.
“I have to, and I did not suspect it! Is there a cheaper parking place here?
“This is the center of the U.S. capital, Men! But there is a parking lot for 15 backs on the neighboring street.
We thanked him and left five cups. Parking was exactly the same.
