Tourism is Up! No word on tour bus annoyance.
Just under 19 million people came to DC last year from out of town, finally getting us back above 9/11 days. It’s a boost for the local economy, that’s true, but a hassle for those of us who live here. But, this is America’s city, so I suppose it’s our duty to be gracious hosts. Just please, stand to the right on the Metro escalators and we’ll all get along fine.
