Thank you. I think that’s a great idea. Being former military I get it. My kids however will see the gravity of how our brave men and women have fought for our country and the freedoms we take for granted.
no matter how many times you go, you will not see everything. It may not be too late to contact your senator for a wh tour or go to the web site and see the current rules. IO liked ford’s theatre. Don’t try all of the smithsonian that’s a month. Space and Aeromautcs and History should do it two different buildings. I don’t know acting about the Slave museum or is it History of Negores in America, something like hat.
The memorials are open air, FDR, lincoln, Jefferson. Viet nam, Korea. you can walk and hang out and meet people form everywhere. up in the washington monument, but buy a ticket at the base and maybe come back.
Taxis used to charge by zone. Stay in 1 zone and get a low price. Metro runs near the mall and many attractions. Can get their from VA. Archives interesting.
Too much too few days, but my original recommendations are near the top of most people’s ;ints androids seem interested in them/ At arlington make sure you watch the changing of the guard a the tomb of the unknowns.
been 7 times.
At Ford’s Theatre visit the house across the street where Lincoln died.
Changing of the Guards at The Tomb of the Unknowns, See JFK’s Grave with the eternal flame. The Iwo Jima Memorial. The Smithsonian system is HUGE. The Air and Space and the Natural History are a must though!! Cantina Marina on the Wharf has the best seafood. I agree with the busses. There are MILES of walking along the mall. The Capitol building is really neat!! You can stay out as far as Rockville MD and still catch the metro line and be downtown within 20 minutes. Take a look at the Metro Line map (on line) and find a hotel near a station.
