For my free pick, I just want to be a beach bum in San Diego. Swimming, volleyball, fish tacos, etc. Maybe I will learn to surf but I expect I would be a spectacular failure. According to the expert, The particular spot is:

Also… not sure on the rules but this might influence a pick down the road.
Need someone else to rule on either (or both):
The boundaries of the National Mall
Can you select a specific location that is already selected in a larger campus?
I have seen the definition of “National Mall” vary. Between the Vietnam War Memorial and the Lincoln Memorial, both can be interpreted to be included in the National Mall.
Giant sequoia trees native only to the Cali mountains, the tallest waterfall in the continental US, and El Capitan (the rock face that Alex Honnold became the first person to free solo in the 2018 documentary appropriately titled Free Solo).
Can you select a specific location that is already selected in a larger campus?
To make an actual ruling on this...unless anyone has an issue with it...I'm thinking if someone wants an attraction that in itself is considered an attraction—within an attraction that's already been taken—it's eligible as long as you don't have to pay for entry/buy a ticket into the larger attraction in order to see the smaller attraction.
Example of something eligible: The National Mall is the larger attraction. The Lincoln Memorial is within the Mall and can be seen without having to buy a ticket into the Mall itself. Another example is Dev's restaurant being on the Vegas Strip which was taken as an attraction by Cole. You don't have to pay to enter the Vegas Strip, so any single location on the Strip can be taken separately.
Example of something not eligible: A roller coaster within Cedar Point which was taken by SG. You have to pay for entry into Cedar Point as a whole, so everything inside the park is included with that pick. Another example is any national park since they all have entry fees (as far as I know). You can't pick out a specific mountain or trail within the park, because the entry fee includes everything inside the park.
Kind of stretching the limits a little maybe but it seems like the best way to do it at this point in the draft, unless anyone has something better in mind.
Looking through my trip this far in, I realize that I'm missing a simple day at the beach. California is nice for that, but if I'm taking a beach, I'm choosing one that I can actually go for a swim at without freezing my balls off. That's not going to be in California.
