Rossi's has a long tradition in Southend, making top quality ice creams for locals and tourists alike. Recently bought out by new management but hopefully the quality of the ice cream won't be affected. Available in restaurants as well as their own seafront store, and a fleet of traditional ice cream vans.

Almost anywhere in Southend.

The statue of the famous raising of the flag on Mt Suribachi, Iwo Jima, is walking distance from Arlington Cemetery and Rosslyn Metro. Go on Saturday and speak to Marine veteran Gordon F Ward, who fought and was injured on Iwo Jima, and now volunteers his time on Saturdays to speak to tourists and school groups about Marine history. There is also a great view back down the National Mall, with the Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument, and Capitol Building all in a line.

Arlington VA, near the George Washington Memorial Parkway.

A lovely inner city park with imposing horseback statue of Andrew Jackson, and an excellent view of the White House north side. It's worth (for the lefties among us!) talking to Concepcion or Thomas, who maintain a 24/7 peace vigil opposite the White House and have been there non-stop since 1981.

Between the White House and H Street, by the Hay-Adams Hotel.
