UNIT 12

 

The hotel

We took a cab from Union Station to the Ramada Inn. The hotel was within walking distance from the station but Rich had a very heavy suitcase. The cab had no meter. The cabbie said that fares were determined by taxi fare zones. Rich later explained that Washington was the exception, not the rule. In most cities, he said, cabs had meters.

At the hotel we checked in without any problems. The desk clerk confirmed my reservation for a double room. We filled out registration forms and got our key. The bellman took Richard's suitcase up. I wondered how much I should tip him. Rich said a one-dollar tip would be okay. Well, how was I doing? Rich said I was doing all right so far.

Our room was not a room but a suite. In fact, it was a whole apartment with a kitchenette, a refrigerator and even a bar. On my bedside table I found a Bible. Rich said there was one in every hotel room. Can you imagine that?

A few facts

After a light snack we went out for a walk. Richard told me a few things about Washington, D. C. These letters are always added to avoid confusion with the state of Washington. The state is very far from the capital, on the West Coast. " D. C." stands for District of Columbia. This special federal district doesn't belong to any of the fifty states. It is very small. So the metropolitan area spills over its boundaries into the neighboring states of Maryland and Virginia.

Rich said that Washington was unlike many other cities in its treatment of tourists. In what way? Most of its museums, galleries and monuments were free.

Quite naturally I tried to compare this city to New York. I noticed that there were no skyscrapers. The law prohibited building structures taller than the Capitol. There were very few people in the street and many more black people there than in New York. Richard said that most of the population was black. He also said that people went to bed very early in Washington. No, it was not like New York at all!
