What famous thing surprised you when you saw it in person?
Mt Rushmore. What a joke. They always make sure that the photos either don't have anything in the foreground for scale, or are taken from super close-up, so you can't see anything but the guy trimming Abe's nose-roots. The thing is dinky! You come around the bend and....blah. What a let-down.
When I first moved to San Antonio, I was shocked to see that the Alamo isn't standing majestically out on a hill somewhere. It is literally across the street from Walgreen's in the middle of downtown.
