  • The Statue of Liberty has ‘Morton’s Toe’. Morton’s Toe is when your second toe is longer than your big toe.
  • On the subject of statues, there is a statue of George Washington in Trafalgar Square, London in the UK. After the American Revolution, the president vowed never to stand on English soil again, so the United States sent some real American soil for the statue to stand on.
  • On the floor of the US Senate there is a desk which is always full of candy.
