(2018) Miami Jai Alai. Known as “the fastest sport in the world,” Jai Alai originated centuries ago in Spain’s Basque region. The ball can travel at speeds of up to 180 mph as players throw it against the wall and try to catch it in their curved baskets (hence, the logo I’m standing in front of). The game was popular throughout the US from the 1940s to 1970s before interest waned in the face of legalized betting on greyhound races and horse races. Jai Alai has remained moderately popular in Florida (especially during the “Miami Vice” craze of the 1980s), particularly in Miami with its large Cuban-American population and other cities such as Dania Beach and Ocala.

Didn’t quite get to have my Elle Woods moment on Capitol Hill, because you can’t go up the steps! ALSO, was definitely singing, “I’m just a bill, yes I’m only a bill” ALL THE WAY UP AND DOWN THE NATIONAL MALL, twirling in my dress Hello I’m Nicole, and I’ve visited 6 continents, but didn’t visit the capitol of my own country until I was 28
-
Washington DC was super cool for me in that regard. I’m actually pretty into politics, and having walked around the places that all the dramas go down brought things full circle for me!
-
TELL ME: Do you follow politics or prefer to keep out of it?
Me: Did it hurt when you fell?
This House: Fell?
Me: When you fell from heaven... .
Shared from @ben_woodbury - My next purchase... a postcard!
But seriously though
