Anna visits the South Lawn of the world's most famous address, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.  Built between 1792 and 1800, the White House has been home to every U.S. president since John Adams.  The White House has 55,000 square feet of floor space, 132 rooms, 35 bathrooms . . . and an Oval Office.   The White House has been restored numerous times over its 200-year history.  Richard Nixon famously put in a bowling alley during his term.

The White House is where Forrest Gump, in the movie of the same name, claimed that "I must have drank me about 15 Dr Peppers..."  Let's join Forrest in this memorable moment, featuring our favorite soft drink, from the Oscar-winning classic.
