The department of justice

sSo I don't know if I have mentioned it on here yet or not, but my security clearance for my internship at the department of justice has taken a little bit longer to clear than expected, so I have had a few days just to hang out in DC.  Today though I went in for the first time to get finger printed and have them review my papers with me.  The place is in the middle of china town, which I will talk about a little more later.  I went the other day looking for it, but gave up thinking that I had the wrong address.  It is literally hidden between two buildings.  In the fifth harry potter, the secret headquarters of Harry and co. was hidden magically, between two normal buildings.  When someone wanted to get into it, the two buildings magically spread apart and the headquarters appeared.  Watch it.  the department of justice's office of justice programs is the very same.  it is hidden between a pub and the german cultural center. Not really hidden, but there is no sign for it or anything, so if you didn't know any better you would think the Gold doors are a part of the German cultural center.  But I got to go in, and it was awesome.  can't wait to start working there. Below is a picture of it from googlemaps.
