What to bring to Washington DC? -

Hi I will be going to Washington DC in June and would like to get a general idea of what i would need to bring with me. Besides clothes and the necessity s what else should I bring?

June is a beautiful month, so dress for warm, springlike weather. Bring comfortable shoes, as you will do a lot of walking. Bring a camera, of course. If the bank you use doesn t have an ATM here, bring travelers checks or cash. Bring your common sense. This is a city, and there is crime here, like with any other big city.

lots of cash, small bills, and watch your back.

A camera with batteries and memory cardbackpackcomfortable walking shoes... trust me you ll need them

relax...June is very far....don t worry abt it now...

Where in San Francisco is the street where the opening credits of the TV show FULL HOUSE takes place? -

I m in San Francisco on vacation and am dying to see the row of famous houses on the hill where the opening credits tot eh TV show FULL HOUSE takes place. Can anyone help me out?Thanks!!

The address of the Tanner house was mentioned in Blast From the Past as being located at 1882 Girard Street in San Francisco, CA. The actual location of the house used for exterior shots in the series is 1709 Broderick Street.i found this video on you tube about someone who filmed going to the famous house. From there, it is several links to other videos. I also found the house on Google Earth, however you have to look for 1742 Broderick street, but when you look at the street picture, the house number is clearly 1709. I love a fun search like this one. Thanks

Achmed is right about the Tanner s house (the white house shown as a scenery shot, typically when changing the scene to their house from somewhere else).However, the row of famous houses on a hill during the opening credits (note: the Tanner s house isn t shown during the the theme song/credits) is likely the Painted Ladies... on Steiner St. between Hayes and Grove. To get the view from the credits (them having a picnic or whatever), view it from the hill at Alamo Square (park), right across the street.

Its 1882 Gerard Street.1882 Gerard Street is indeed a fictitious address.According to this post in the forum at TV.com however, the actual address for the exterior row of homes depicted on Full House is 1892 Steiner Street in San Francisco.But if you want to go through with your plan and see the exact house you must visit The Painted Ladies in an area some people call Postcard Row. This is where many famous shots including the Mrs Doubtfire ones have been taken. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q hl=en ge��But the show was filmed in sets inside the studio and not at any real house. Hope that helps.

Gerard st

On the Radio is correct; it s Alamo Square.

Snow in florida...,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,? -

do we ever get snow in florida..why people go to florida during winters..............

While it is rare for snow to fall in Florida, it does occasionally occur, particularly in the northern part of the state.Here s a link that is worth checking out. It lists all the snow events that Florida has experienced over the years.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sno��Hope this helps!

People go to Florida during the winter to escape the snow up north.

I used to live in FL, we got a tiny bit of flurries one night.

Whats Las Vegas like in December? -

I ve only been to Vegas during the summer and fall, but I m thinking about going for a week in December. How does the relativly cold weather affect activity on the Strip ? What clothing should I wear and what else should I take into account ?

December is my favorite time to visit, specifically right after the 10 day long National Finals Rodeo is over (which is December 14 this year), because it s one of the least crowded times of the year. Christmas and New Years are crowded; then you have the huge 100,000 attendee Consumer Electronics Show just a few days after the New Years crowds leave. Days are fairly warm, 60s to 70s; then nights get pretty cold, 30s to 40s. Rain and snow are not likely although last year I did get snowed and rained on. Out of my 18 trips to Las Vegas, at least 10 of them have been in December and it s only rained or snowed that one time.Other than the colder than usual temperatures at night and smaller than average crowds on the strip, you won t notice anything different from other times of the year except that more shows are dark (not playing) than is usual. Their performers and dancers probably get a week or two of vacation time for Christmas. If you do get snow be extra cautious when driving or walking because most of the Las Vegas natives (which includes the taxi drivers) are not accustomed to driving in the snow. I saw multiple wrecks last year after a light dusting of snow. (Not on the strip, I was driving around in a rental car.)

It s really chilly and sometimes rainy. The hotels have the decorations up which is really nice besides the hotel themes themselves and it s less crowded which can be really niice to soak everything up and see everything and eat wherever you want without all the crowds. Anytime I ve visited in the winter, the only thing I am not able to do is swim but that s fine because I never have to wait for anything as there are less people around. Personally, I love it and it s nice to walk the strip in cold weather rather than summer scorching heat!

There will be a lot of activity in Vegas this December with the opening of CityCenter. Since Las Vegas has a desert climate, the days are mild but the nights get cold. It doesn t usually snow so you will be fine with long pants and a light jacket.http://www.lasvegas-how-to.com/christmas��Have fun

It does get very cold here in Dec...not sure what some of these people are talking about here saying it is just like it is in July...bull.Last year (not common though) we got 8 inches of snow. I don t know why people think that it stays sunny and warm here all year, it does NOT. Dec. is crowded with tourist and holiday shoppers. I try and stay off the roads this time of year. Bring warm clothes and have fun!

Christmas; did you know that it snows in Vegas up in the mountains just a 1/2 hour from the strip? take a look at vegasnature.com and click on the Spring Mountain Picture. We actually have a ski area. If that is not your thing just keep clicking and see where else you can go.

Vegas in December is just like Vegas in July. Tourists are losing money in the casinos and barfing in the rest rooms.

I live here.There is not much going on and it gets very cold.

normally it s not that cold
